Major Apple Watch Software Update Could Bring Several New Features

According to a report published today Apple is working on new software updates for the Apple Watch which are going to add a few features to the wearable device. Some of the features that are expected to be added through this software update include sleep tracking, third-party complications and finally the ability to locate a lost Apple Watch.

The company is reportedly developing health related features as well which include sleep tracking, a feature that’s common in most fitness bands available on the market.

It’s not mentioned in this report if all of these features will be released at once in just one software update or if Apple is going to break them up and roll them out in subsequent updates.

The possibility exists that the company might announce some of these features at the Worldwide Developers Conference 2015, a stage it traditionally uses to make major software related announcements.

Third-party complications would allow developers to tap into the complications that are displayed on the watch face, one is reportedly being developed with Twitter, which will allow users to see unread mentions right on the watch face itself.

We’ll probably get to know more about the upcoming update at WWDC 2015, till then we can’t expect Apple to say anything about the software improvements that it has lined up for its first smartwatch.
