Google’s first Apple Watch app: News & Weather

Google has issued an update to its Google News & Weather app for iPhone that adds support for Apple Watch. After installing the update, users can browse top news items and local weather reports on their Watches. Some of the articles are accompanied by images, but looking at photos on the Apple Watch is less than ideal.

One nice feature is that a Force Touch on an article sends it to Safari Reading List, so you can read it full-screen when you get a chance. 

This is Google’s first foray into Apple’s mini wearable, and we suspect it won’t be the last.
