Apple announced the Apple Watch 6 and Watch SE models last year in September. With EEC certification in tow, it is likely that the Cupertino-based company may announce the new Watch 7 lineup with watchOS 8 in September. Unfortunately, the rumor mill is yet to reveal concrete information on the specs of the models in the Apple Watch Series 7.
Apple has recently seeded the fourth beta edition of the Watch OS 8 to developers. It is expected to come equipped with features that are said to be extensions of the iOS 15’s features. It will let users add keys for hotels, cars, home doors, and so on. Users in the US will also be able to add their IDs to Wallet. It is expected to arrive with an overhauled Home app, and there could be additions like Pilates and Taichi in the Workout app. The Breathe app will be called Mindfulness in the watchOS, and the Apple Watch will be able to measure respiratory rate while sleeping. For easier communication, the Messages app may come with features like scribble, dictation, GIFs, and emojis.
