Bloomberg’s Gurman says that in watchOS 10, widgets will be returned to the platform
One change that might take place in watchOS 10 would change the function of the Apple Watch’s Digital Crown. Currently, pressing the button takes you to the home screen but Gurman says that Apple might have users press the button to open up the timepiece’s widgets instead. As Gurman notes, Apple’s move shows that it has come to the realization that the iPhone’s app-centric platform doesn’t work as well on a watch where the user wants to see the latest information quickly without having to waste time looking where to find it.
Gurman says that the watchOS 10 update will be the biggest change to the Apple Watch this year since the Series 9 models are likely not to have any major hardware upgrades.
