Tech giant Apple has launched its new watchOS 8. Apart from all this, Apple also launched macOS Monetary and many new health features to make itself more user friendly. The company said that it will give people the freedom to share data with family members or others from its Health app.
In the Health app, a new sharing tab lets users share their data privately with a trusted partner or caregiver.
Meanwhile, watchOS 8 will bring several new mindfulness features, including enhanced guidance meditation, as well as new data captured during sleep and additional exercise modes.
The new workout types for both physical fitness and mindful movement – Tai Chi and Pilates – are backed by powerful, validated custom-built heart rate and motion algorithms to provide users with accurate metrics.
Kevin Lynch, Apple’s Vice President of Technology, said in a statement, “Apple Watch is the most loved watch in the world that keeps users healthy, active and connected.
The redesigned Music app enables users to share songs, albums and playlists via messaging and mail, and enjoy music and radio in one place.
The developer beta of watchOS 8 is available to members of the Apple Developer Program at developer.apple.com.
