The MacRumors Show: Talking Through watchOS 10’s Huge Redesign
Last week, Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman reported that watchOS 10 will introduce an all-new system of widgets for interacting with the Apple Watch. He explained that widgets will become a “central part” of the Apple Watch’s interface and compared the new system to Glances, the widgets interface that launched on the original Apple Watch before being scrapped in watchOS 3, and the style of widgets that iOS 14 brought to the iPhone.
Apple is also apparently testing changes to the functions performed by the Apple Watch’s buttons. For example, a press of the Digital Crown may now launch the new widgets view, rather than navigate to the home screen.
The new interface will apparently be “reminiscent” of the Siri watch face that was introduced in watchOS 4, but as an overlay for any Apple Watch face. “It’s also similar to widget stacks, a feature in iOS and iPadOS that lets users pile many widgets into one and scroll through them,” Gurman added.
There are also rumors about watchOS 10 introducing a new home screen layout that takes cues from iOS with features like app folders. The changes are part of what is expected to be one of the Apple Watch’s biggest software updates since its introduction and the most significant change to the Apple Watch this year, as only minor hardware updates are expected to be unveiled later this year.
We consider how this new UI could take shape and how we feel about the proposed changes, reflecting on Glances, watchOS 4’s Siri watch face, past changes to the Apple Watch’s buttons, and the future of apps on the device.
We also discuss some of the latest Apple news, including the expansion of AirTag-like tracking alerts to third-party devices, iOS 17‘s rumored Wallet and Health app redesigns, and the delay of the microLED Apple Watch Ultra to 2025.

Gurman: Widgets to Be ‘Central Part’ of watchOS 10’s Interface
In the latest edition of his “Power On” newsletter, Gurman explained that widgets will become a “central part” of the Apple Watch’s interface with watchOS 10. He compared the new system to Glances, the widgets interface that launched on the original Apple Watch before being scrapped within a few years, and the style of widgets that iOS 14 brought to the iPhone.

The new interface will apparently be “reminiscent” of the Siri watch face that was introduced in watchOS 4, but as an overlay for any Apple Watch face. “It’s also similar to widget stacks, a feature in iOS and iPadOS that lets users pile many widgets into one and scroll through them,” Gurman added.
The plan is to let users scroll through a series of different widgets — for activity tracking, weather, stock tickers, calendar appointments and more — rather than having them launch apps.
Apple is also apparently testing changes to the functions performed by the Apple Watch’s buttons. For example, a press of the Digital Crown may now launch the new widgets view, rather than navigate to the home screen.
Gurman believes that the move is an admission that an iPhone-like app experience “doesn’t always make sense on a watch” since “Apple Watch apps have barely caught on.” Due to being a radical departure from the app-centric experience existing Apple Watch users are used to, Apple may make the new interface optional.
The changes are part of what Gurman claims will be one of the Apple Watch’s biggest software updates since its introduction and the most significant change to the Apple Watch this year, as only minor hardware updates are expected to be unveiled later this year.

My friends and I are sizes XS-XL and tried the same bikini – people say we’re ’10s across the board’
REGARDLESS of your body type, finding a bikini that makes you feel confident and sexy is no easy feat.
One woman said she sought to solve that problem by creating a swimsuit line that flatters all shapes and sizes.

Three women, all with different body types, tried on the same bikini and were thrilled with the results[/caption]

Chioma Ngwudo (@chiomanngwudo) is a lifestyle blogger who founded her own fashion and accessories brand, Cee Cee’s Closet.
One of her focuses is swimsuits – and with friends whose body shapes vary across the spectrum, she wanted to create a style that anyone could wear.
In a video, she demonstrated how the bikinis fit on different women.
The first woman, wearing a size medium, danced around to flaunt her curves in the $55 triangle top and $45 string bottom.
She later added sunglasses and the $120 matching cover up to complete the ensemble.
Wearing the same style but in a pink print rather than an orange one, another model appeared toned and confident in the size XS.
To show range, a third woman stepped out in a skimpy size XL, pairing the look with matching bright sunglasses and chunky heels.
All three women clearly felt good in the bikinis, styling them in ways that accentuated their features.
“Two prints and a world of fun,” the caption read.
Commenters were left enamored with all of the women.
“Gorgeous! 10’s across the board,” one person wrote alongside a fire emoji.
“They all fine,” another admired.
“Yessss why y’all so gorgeous?” chimed a third.
And a fourth was just happy to have finally found bikinis that would flatter their busty frame: “Omg def buying from you. I’ve been looking for good examples with women with bigger chests.”

In the early days of Windows 10, Microsoft sent irritating full-screen popups and alerts to PCs running earlier versions, asking them to upgrade to the newest version. Now, Microsoft is (allegedly) bringing back that strategy for Windows 11.
