O september is not just synonymous with an Apple event where we get to know a new generation of Apple products, among which we find not only new iPhones but also Apple Watch watches.
In addition to new Apple products, the month of September is also synonymous with new updates for these same products and, although the news is entitled to much greater attention, the truth is that there are also some features that end up being removed.
Removing these features does not always follow the same rule. There will be cases where removal may be related to the low use and, in other situations, Apple's decision may be in the presence of alternative options.
What is certain is that, according to the site 9to5mac, there are already 3 features currently present on Apple Watch that will be removed by the next smart watch update – watchOS 27.
You can find out what these features are in the list below:
The 3 features that will be removed from Apple Watch:
- The Walkie-Talkie app;
- The double click on the watch crown will no longer serve to switch between two apps;
- The clock's home screen will no longer have all apps and will have a more dynamic grid, which will select the apps you use most.
