Apple has seeded the second public update of the latest Apple Watch software, watchOS 7.0.2. The latest version resolves battery and performance issues. The previous watchOS 7.0.1 update was released two weeks before and it contained bug fixes as well.
The company released the new watchOS 7 to the public at the September 15 event, after being in beta testing for three months. The latest version of the software brings many new features and performance improvements to the compatible Apple Watch models like new faces, fitness app, and more.
Users can easily update their smartwatches to the latest version via Settings app > General > Software Update. Apple Watch must have a 50 percent battery, should be kept on charger through out the install duration, and be within their iPhone’s range.
