New dials, parental controls, tachymeter and more on the next Apple Watch

Apple Watch

If yesterday we talked about the possibility that the next Apple Watch is capable of measuring oxygen levels in blood, the news of watchOS 7 and Apple Watch Series 6 will not stop there. Tachymeter, sleep monitoring, new dials and a new parental control for the Apple watch are some of the changes that await us in the next update.

Next June, if the coronavirus allows it, we will be able to see the news that watchOS 7 will bring us, the next big update for the Apple Watch. Many of these functions will be shared by existing models, and some will be exclusive to the new model that Apple launches. after the summer because they will need new hardware. 9to5Mac has accessed part of the iOS 14 code, and in it they have found very interesting data that talks about some of these functions that we will see in a few months.

There will be changes in the dials of the Apple Watch, as always when there is an update of this type. But not only in terms of the spheres themselves, but also a new feature that will allow you to share your sphere as it is configured with other users. It is not clear if this feature can be used directly from the APple Watch or if it will have to be through the iOS application. In addition there will be a new sphere, Infograph Pro, which will be added to the existing ones, Infograph and modular Infograph. In this new “pro” sphere there will be an element that will be the protagonist: the tachymeter.

The tachymeter is an element that for years has been present in conventional watches, to such an extent that it stopped becoming a tool to switch to be a decorative element that practically all watches have included in their dial. With this element you can calculate the speed and the distance traveled by means of a few simple calculations. After the Apple Watch “borrowed” the crown of analog watches, with watchOS 7 you will take another element of that world for your Apple Watch.

Parental controls for the Apple Watch will also be included. This smart watch has become an object of desire for many older children, who already have their iPhone and who also want to enjoy their Apple Watch. But what if the child did not have an iPhone? According to 9to5Mac an Apple Watch for a minor can be activated and controlled from an adult's iPhone, without needing a second iPhone. In addition, you can control elements such as your address book, the music you can listen to, or even what applications and complications can be used at all times, something ideal to control the use of the Apple Watch during school hours.

In addition to all these novelties there will be others, such as sleep monitoring that we have already talked about, new buttons for the watchOS control center, the ability to use the shared Photos album for the dials of our Apple Watch, etc. Of what there is no trace at the moment is a sphere shop, something that many have been waiting for years.
