Smartwatches & Fitness Trackers

Typing on the Apple Watch can be a little tricky because the screen is so small. That's why after watchOS 8, Apple released a feature that allows you to utilize your iPhone's keyboard to type on the Apple Watch instead. However, this notification popping up on your iPhone can get a bit annoying. Here's how to stop the Apple Watch keyboard notification that keeps popping up.

At Apple’s September 2023 announcement event, the tech giant revealed the capabilities of its new Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2. The yearly update to both devices improves the processor to a new S9 chip, which will include AI processing cores for the first time on an Apple Watch. These cores enhance the function of every task that relies on artificial intelligence, from processing photos, to interpreting voice commands, to more accurate typing with autocorrect. Those cores will allow Siri to process some commands on the Apple Watch, without needing to communicate with an iPhone or the cloud. The new chip also enables a whole new gesture the user performs on their watch-arm, without touching the screen. Here’s everything you need to know about Apple’s latest generation of Apple Watches.
