Apple presents WatchOS 2.2 release withsome new features. Apple Watch users can install this operating system but only once they meet some requirements. For example, if you have Verizon iPhone running iOS 9.2 [or any other carrier model running older versions of mobile OS] you cannot install WatchOS 2.2.
The latest operating system for smartwatch is only available to users who have updated to iOS 9.3. WatchOS 2.2 update works only with the newest OS.
iPhone 4S and newer phone owners can download iOS 9.3 through OTA-update or using direct ipsw links. Only afterwards they can install watchOS 2.2. There were six betas of this firmware before it became available to public. iOS 9.3 got one more beta [seven total] before it was released to public.
What does watchOS 2.2 update offer? The main option allows users pairing more than one smartwatch with the iPhone. This is a cool addition as all your friends and family who have the Apple Watch will be able to use the same phone with all the devices.
New firmware also makes Maps program better. It adds Nearby search option. It also brings a new screen of actions. But you can enjoy all these enhancements only after running iOS 9.3 firmware on iPhone which is also the most recent update.
There are several spring releases brought by the ‘fruit’ company. Apple has updated software versions and brought two new gadgets. We’ll see iPad Pro with 9.7-inch screen and 4-inch iPhone SE on March 30th.
