Apple WatchOS 10.1 update is now available for download in India. The latest update includes new features, improvements and bug fixes, including Double Tap gesture. The new double tap gesture is only available for Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 users.
Double Tap gesture brings a fast and convenient way to interact with Apple Watch. According to the company, it can be used to perform the primary action in notifications and most apps so you can answer a call, play and pause music, stop a timer and more
With the double tap gesture, users can easily control Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 using just one hand and without touching the display. Users can tap the index finger and thumb of their watch hand together twice to quickly perform many of the most common actions.
This new feature complements existing gestures like tap, swipe, raise to wake, and cover to mute that make Apple Watch simple and intuitive to use.
The feature also allows users to select the primary action in a wide variety of watchOS apps and notifications, including opening the Smart Stack and scrolling through widgets; answering and ending phone calls; and playing and pausing music.
“It works anytime the display is awake, and the feature is available all day long with minimal impact to the 18-hour battery life on Apple Watch Series 9 or the 36-hour battery life on Apple Watch Ultra 2,” the company said.
watchOS 10.1 update also includes NameDrop feature, allowing you to exchange contact information with someone new by simply bringing your Apple Watch near their iPhone with iOS 17 or Apple Watch.
This feature is available on Apple Watch SE 2, Apple Watch Series 7 and later, and Apple Watch Ultra. watchOS 10.1 is available for Apple Watch Series 4 and later starting today, and requires iPhone XS or later running iOS 17.
