“Find my Watch” third party widgets for watchface and new features health and fitness. In a few days the Apple Watch will meet its first month on the market since it was launched in 9 countries on 24 April. Now, a reliable source, 9to5Mac reveals some of the new features and functions that could get to watch the first software update, which is still in development and we could know all the details at WWDC 2015 that He held on June 8.
In addition, the source has also provided new information about the software that come with the new generation of Apple TV, which is also expected to be presented during the WWDC. But go to parties, because we have lots of information and should separate it carefully so we can understand what is what is to come.
Find my Watch and Smart leashing
One of the great features that will be included with the next update of Apple’s Find My Watch, a function which, as its name suggests, is very similar to the current Find my iPhone / iPad. This feature will allow us to locate our Apple Watch remotely from another device or restore Apple and lock if lost or stolen. As we warned the other day, the Apple Watch has not any anti-theft device as Activation Lock or remote location, so the company seeks to remedy in future updates. Apparently, this function would take months in development, but Apple engineers have had some problems with connectivity issues.
In addition, Find my Watch could come from the hand of another new feature: “Smart leashing”. Given the dependence of the clock with the iPhone, this could use your WiFi signal to determine its location in relation to the phone and, if it detects that we are forgetting it, report it by tapping on our wrist. The source notes that these two functions may require more capacity and independent wireless chips, so they could finally have to wait for the next generation of the device.
New features health and fitness
At present, Apple could be working on a feature that will use the heart rate sensor to alert the user of a frequency of abnormal heartbeats, which may help prevent heart attacks or possible heart conditions. However, this feature may require approval from different government health institutions, which could finally stop at mere internal testing. It also seems that the team of health functions Apple Watch has created a roadmap to the functions they want to add in the coming years, among which is a blood pressure monitor and track the dream for the near future while glucose sensors would be programmed long term.
