watchOS 9 feels upgraded: new watch face, medication mode
After upgrading watchOS 9, you can immediately see new surfaces in the Watch App, such as the “Metropolis” surface with a slender font design, the cute anthropomorphic font “Game Time”, and a “combination” with a gradient background color design. Wait, let the watch be full of personality.
In addition, the physical training function has also been upgraded, and the indicator screen can be viewed by using the digital crown. The medication mode is also a new function only available in watchOS 9. Through the health app, daily medication reminders can be added. These new functions will be evaluated and written into teaching articles afterward.
