Apple typically adds new health-oriented features to theApple Watch.
But in 2023, Apple is taking a different approach.
Above all else, Siri’s new health smarts could solve a big problem.
Even in 2023, the myriad health statistics our wearables gather can still be difficult to parse.
“And so we think this feature certainly brings us more and more closer to that goal.”
According to Caldbeck, Siri support for health-related queries on the watch has been a highly requested feature.
That means data doesn’t have to leave your watch for the request to be fulfilled.
Reddit threads detail user complaints about the Health app beinghard to navigateandclunky.
It took four taps on my iPhone to find my average daily exercise minutes, for example.
But with the update, that bang out of data should be available on Series 9 almost instantly.
Samsung also recently announcedGalaxy AI, likely an umbrella term for new AI-powered features coming to its devices.
Apple never discusses future products before announcing them.
But Caldbeck says Apple will keep investing in Siri’s health capabilities.
