watchOS 26 is the Apple Watch’s latest major software update, and I’ve been using it in beta for a few months now. Here are the new watchOS 26 features I’ve been loving most throughout that time.

AI will happily design the wrong thing for you

I need to clear something up about my book, “Products People Actually Want.” When I write about how “anyone can build anything” now, some people assume I’m anti-AI. That I think these tools are ruining design or product development. That’s not it at all. AI tools are incredible leverage. They make me think faster, broader, and help me produce better work.
