Hi everyone Aaron here for Zollotech and today apple released watch os 7.0.2 to all supported
devices so if your watch supports watchos 7 this update should be out for you so that means
anything from the series 3 like i have here series 4 series 5 series 6 and se the update should be
available for you now and in order to get that update what you want to do is go to your phone
now you can check on the watch but i usually go to my phone you want to go to the watch app and under
watch app just go to software update that can be found under your settings for watch go to general
go to software update and it will check and once it's there you can install it now just like any
other watch os update you will need to actually have your your watch charge to at least 50 percent
and on a charger unlocked in for in order for it to actually work and install the update so as
long as you meet those criteria you'll be good to go and you'll be able to update now watch
os 7.0.2 came in at 70.5 megabytes on my series 6 apple watch and addresses a couple major concerns
let's take a look at the build number and then talk about what's new so if we go to our settings
then we go back here we'll go to settings then we'll go to general and about
you'll see under version it says 18r402 that's the build number that's how you know you're on
the latest version by verifying it there now this particular update addresses a couple major issues
like i said the first one being battery life some people were having horrendous battery life
with 7.0.2 just like they were on ios 7. and i'll talk more about that in a little bit
apple did not release ios updates at least by the time of this video or filming of this
video nor did they release ipad updates or mac updates so this particular update though does
fix battery issues which many people were having and what that means is if you were having extreme
battery drain apple had told you in the past to actually completely wipe your watch and repair it
in order to fix that problem so you would have to reset the watch wiping all the data off of it and
then pair it to your your phone all over again and then it would solve that problem apple has
since solved that with this update so if you're having that issue whether it be on a series three
like this apple watch or another they've fixed it another thing they've fixed is ecg in fact
i know someone that has this problem they updated they got a new watch connected to their phone and
ecg did not show up it wasn't even an option in their in their apps so you'll see i have ecg here
it was happening in the areas that are supported now not all areas around the world have ecg but if
you're supposed to have it it should have already been there there was a bug that was preventing it
from showing up some people were able to fix that by again deleting the watch and repairing
it to their device but right now it should be fixed and showing up finally like expected
so that was a pretty major bug especially if you were looking forward to that particular feature
and it should be there now now one thing apple did not address directly is the rebooting issue that
people were having on series 3 apple watches this was a pretty major problem in fact i'm getting
messages about it almost every day and regardless of battery life people were having their watch
reboot maybe the battery was going bad and you can check your battery health now if you have an
older watch like this series 3 or maybe you just picked up a new series 3 you want it to function
as expected but make sure that your battery health isn't degraded you can check that under settings
and then you want to go down to battery go to battery we'll wait for it to load scroll down you
have battery health now and under battery health you'll see this particular one is at 89 percent
so that should be good it will tell you whether or not your watch needs to have the battery replaced
it's running okay and it seems to be fine but if you have a very low battery health capacity
well then maybe that's the issue otherwise though apple did not address it directly
also in this this particular update should be some more bug fixes although they didn't call
out any specifically and also there should be some security updates perhaps as well but
they didn't mention any specifically either and other than that though performance should be fine
it should be the same since it's a very minor update so your performance hopefully is good i
know some i know some people on a little bit older versions we're having some performance issues but
it seems like it's mostly good for the majority of people that are using 7.0.2 so don't expect that
too much i would expect maybe some major changes with watch os 7.1 maybe a couple more features or
watch faces and speaking of watch faces a lot of people have asked me what is this watch face and
this is actually part of an app that allows you to create it under lumi so this is a purchased app
that fills in golden hour which golden hour refers to sunset and sunrise when you want to take your
photos or videos it tells you exactly when that is and tells you how soon or how far away it is
so it's a nice little app and then of course it has other complications you can see below
and so that's all this is it's a really nice apple watch face i like it a lot so i've been using it
now as far as ios 14.0.2 well i'm not sure that apple's actually even going to release it at this
point apple's event is tomorrow where they're going to show off the new iphones and we're not
really expecting any major update maybe a fix for a couple things but apple has not said if they're
going to release 14.0.2 or 14.1 many people suspect ios 14.1 with the release of iphone 12
so maybe we'll see a minor fix tomorrow where they actually release it and they fix that battery
issue just like they did today with apple watch hopefully we'll see that soon but we really don't
have any information on that at this particular time so hopefully we see that i'm not really sure
but let me know what you're looking forward to most in the comments below now if you've found
any new features with this particular update let me know in the comments below and if you'd like to
