We recently saw a video of the new iOS 14.4 Release Candidate and now we have a video of watchOS 7.3 Release Candidate, both versions were released to developers last week.
Apple’s watchOS 7.3 Release Candidate is the final beta of watchOS 7.3 and we are expecting Apple to release the software to everyone this week. The new video from Zollotech gives us a look at what is coming in watchOS 7.3.
As we can see from the video there are a number of new features in the watchOS 7.3 software update, plus a range of bug fixes and performance improvements.
New Features in watchOS 7.3
One of the standout features in watchOS 7.3 is the introduction of the new Unity watch face, which celebrates Black History Month. This watch face is inspired by the colors of the Pan-African flag and offers a unique and customizable design that users can personalize to their liking. Additionally, the update includes enhancements to the ECG app, which is now available in more countries, allowing more users to take advantage of this life-saving feature.
Another significant addition is the Time to Walk feature for Apple Fitness+ subscribers. This feature provides users with an immersive audio experience where they can listen to inspiring stories while walking. The stories are narrated by influential people from various fields, offering motivation and a sense of connection during workouts.
Bug Fixes and Performance Improvements
In addition to new features, watchOS 7.3 addresses several bugs and improves overall performance. One of the critical fixes includes resolving an issue where the Control Center and Notification Center might become unresponsive when Zoom is enabled. This fix ensures a smoother user experience for those who rely on accessibility features.
The update also brings improvements to the Bluetooth connectivity of the Apple Watch, ensuring more stable connections with other devices. Users have reported fewer instances of dropped connections and better overall performance when using Bluetooth accessories.
Furthermore, watchOS 7.3 includes optimizations for battery life, which is always a welcome improvement for Apple Watch users. These optimizations help extend the time between charges, allowing users to make the most of their device throughout the day.
We are expecting Apple to release watchOS 7.3 and iOS 14.4 some time this week, probably tomorrow. As soon as we get some more details, we will let you guys know.
