I upgraded to watchOS 10, and it’s so interesting – like someone joined the team and said, “why do we do *that*?” 100 times.
- Was side button multitasking useful? Not really.
- Was the zooming grid an effective way to find apps? Nope.
- Did we need the clock in the app list? Nuh-uh.
Controversially, I’m also glad “swipe to change watch face” is gone, because I never did it on purpose 🙈
It takes a lot of time, energy, and bravery to execute this kind of root to branch rethink – well done! 🙌
