In addition to the design revisions expected to come iOS 26 And the rest of Apple’s platforms in WWDC, 9TO5MAC, learned that Watchos 26 should present one of the most requested Apple Watch use features: third-party widgets of the control center.
For the first time, Apple Watch’s control center will go beyond the bass and Apple tiles.
About time
According to a reliable source, Watchos 26 will allow developers to connect their own widgets directly to the control center. This will allow users to surface relevant actions or data from third-party applications alongside Wi-Fi mode, battery and focus mode.
And this improves: our source tells us that the layout will be fully customizable via the Watch application on iPhone, allowing users to add, delete or reorganize control center widgets much more easily than with the current watch method.
9TO5MAC
It is a long -awaited improvement and very well received in a Watchos field which has remained largely intact for years.
This change opens the door to a range of potential use cases, as well as Apple Watch complications: a hydration tracker with a newspaper button, a shortcut of application at intelligent home to lock your doors, or even a kick -off of predefined training, etc.
As always, Apple can choose to delay or modify this functionality before making it public. It should also be kept in mind that if our source has proven reliable in the past, there is always a chance that this feature can pass WWDC and make its debut later in the cycle.
Wwdc25: what to expect
Apple should unveil major updates on all its platforms, especially iOS 26,, MacOS 26,, iPados 26,, Watchos 26and more. The AI would have played a smaller role this year, the spotlights will probably come across design refreshments and the choices of longtime wishes lists such as better window management medium on the iPad.
The keynote starts on Monday June 9, and 9TO5MAC will include complete coverage before, during and after the event. See you then!
