watchOS 11 released for the Apple Watch: This is what the update contains

As every year, Apple updates its operating systems and has of course also released the new version for its smart watches. watchOS 11 is here.

With the new version, the watch will now display the training load. This will give you more insight into your workload and its contribution to your fitness. Similar functions already exist on platforms such as Strava. It works in such a way that after each training session you have to give feedback on how difficult you found the workout. The smartwatch determines this automatically, but you have the option to adjust it up or down. The fitness app on the iPhone will generally be more customizable.

watchOS 11 also introduces a new app called Vitals, which provides more information about the condition of your body. The Health app will structure the data better, and values ​​outside your usual range will be highlighted. This has already helped you see if your body temperature has changed and you are about to get sick. Pregnant women will also receive improved information in the Health app.

The Smart Stack gets new widgets, including a translation widget. Check-in and live activities are also introduced. Developers can access the stack and the double-tap feature via an API.

The ability to customize the watch face is particularly important for many users. Machine learning in watchOS 11 will automatically suggest and optimize photos for better watch faces.
