Apple has officially released watchOS 10, the latest iteration of its smartwatch operating system. WatchOS 10 is now available for numerous Apple Watch models and includes new features such as interactive widgets and revamped Apple apps.
How to Get and Install WatchOS 10
To install watchOS 10 on your Apple smartwatch, you’ll need an iPhone Xs or later running iOS 17, so make sure you update to the latest version first.
