watchOS 10 is ‘expected to pack a number of significant changes,’ reported 9 to 5 Mac, citing Mark Gurman, Bloomberg's Chief Correspondent, Technology.
Apple watchOS 10: Features expected
watchOS 10 will get a ‘fairly extensive upgrade' focused on ‘notable changes to the user interface,’ 9 to 5 Mac quoted Gurman as saying. Here is what is expected:
Digital Crown: In the current version of watchOS, Digital Crown directs a user to the Watch home screen. In watchOS 10, on the other hand, Digital Crown may lead to the new widgets interface instead, said Bloomberg.
Mood and emotion tracking: Also coming from Bloomberg is that the Tim Cook-helmed tech giant is developing new ‘mood and emotion tracking’ features for watchOS 10.

New journaling app: Apple is also reportedly working on a ‘journaling’ app. Though the app is being developed for iOS 17, it is expected to have at least some sort of integration with Watch.
