The wait is over, and we finally know which watchOS 5 features were just rumors and which features we can look forward to enjoying later this year.

Even so, there are enough cool new features to make most Apple Watch fans happy. And there are a lot of fans; Apple Watch adoption also grew by a whopping 60 percent in the last year, likely thanks to the introduction of a cellular model. Here's everything you need to know about the next iteration of watchOS, from the watchOS 5 release date, to which Apple Watch models will be able to run watchOS 5, and which features you should be most excited about.
