Apple announced a major redesign of all Apple software during the 2025 WWDC Keynote on June 9. This year, watchOS 26 (that’s right, there will be no watchOS 12) is bringing exciting and practical Apple Intelligence features to your wrist, including the smart Workout Buddy that will coach you via voice and smarter ways to dismiss notifications, respond to texts, and navigate your watch features.

Here's how to zoom out on Apple Watch.
