What’s new in the watchOS 8 beta : WatchOS 8, Apple releases fifth beta for developers

Every new version brings obvious improvements, but what is most striking are the news, in the case of watchOS 8 it comes with new portrait spheres , improvements in the photos app and with new options to obtain improvements in sleep tracking , as if that were not enough, we are presented with a new organization system similar to that of the iPhone.  

With regard to health and fitness functions, a series of new exercises have been incorporated, among which Tai Chi and Pilates stand out. Additionally, the Apple watch comes with the function of calculating the respiratory rate. The new Mindfulness application offers the Reflect function , specially designed so that users can develop meditation habits, it will be linked to heart rate. 

It is important to note that in this new beta, the Wallet application will accept different types of keys , either from the house or from the car, and one touch will be enough to unlock the devices connected to HomeKit. The Home application has also been retouched and its design is designed to facilitate the control of the different devices, giving priority to those that are in use. 

So far everything sounds wonderful, but it is time to remember that for now watchOS 8 is still an unfinished version, for this reason it is noted that if it is installed it could behave erratically and strangely, it may even render the device unusable, so Unless you have a spare one, the suggestion is to wait until the final version is ready for the public to install it.
