How to Make the most of watchOS 3.2

-

1 Find Theater Mode

Once you’ve installed watchOS 3.2, swipe up from the bottom of your Apple Watch’s screen and you’ll see a new layout. In the bottom right corner is a new icon for Theater Mode.

2 Use Theater Mode

Tap the new icon and it turns orange. When it’s enabled, silent mode is automatica­lly turned on, and when you raise your wrist the Watch’s screen remains dark rather than turning on.

3 New colors

Apple has made available a new selection of Watch straps, and made some tweaks to the colors available within the watch faces to suit these. The new colors are very subtle.

4 A consistent style

The new colors mean that you can choose one of the new straps and match the watch face to it, so the theme throughout is consistent. These small touches add a lot of style.

5 SiriKit on board

The addition of SiriKit to watchOS means that app developers are now able to do things that were not previously possible on your Apple Watch. Apps which use these will appear over time.

6 SiriKit advantages

For example, you will be able to send payments, book rides, start workouts in third-party apps, and potentiall­y a lot more without even needing to touch your iPhone.
