Apple’s update to watchOS 27 will include a simplified version of the Modular Ultra watch face for the Apple Watch Ultra, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says in his latest “Power On” newsletter.
Why? The tech giant wants to tweak it so it can be used with o the non-Ultra screens of the smaller Apple Watch models. Gurman says the tweak to the Modular Ultra watch face would keep the large clock from the face design, but eliminates the ditch the complication section in the center. It would also removes the row of three small complications that appear above the time, and the information that surrounds the bezel.
watchOS 27 will be unveiled at next month’s Worldwide Developer Conference. It, and updates to Apple’s other operating systems, will arrive to end users in September or October.
