In recent days, Apple has presented the new watchOS 10.1 update to smart watch users in conjunction with IOS 17.1 update. It is worth noting that this update includes the introduction of two main features, Double Tap and Name Drop, in addition to a group of new features, bug fixes and security updates. Follow us and we will share with you all the information about the new update, and how you can install it on your device.
What's new in the watchOS 10.1 update?
After Apple released the watchOS 10 operating system last September, Apple launched the first major update, which is watchOS 10.1, and the reason for this is for two reasons. The first is to launch some new features and the second is to address some errors that users complained about, such as the lack of synchronization between the phone and the watch in the weather application. The scroll bar suddenly appears and white lines appear after turning off the Assistive Touch feature. We will share all these points with you in detail in the following paragraphs.
Double Tap feature
You can use double tap to automatically select the primary action for most apps or notifications.
Here are some uses for Double Tap
- Open Smart Stack from any watch face and navigate through widgets.
- View any message from a notification and scroll through longer notifications with an additional double tap.
- Sorry, alarm clock.
- Play or stop music.
- Automatically start or stop workout reminders.
- Stopwatch control.
- Answer or control calls.
- Take photos for your iPhone using the camera's remote control.
The Double Tap feature only works on recent Apple Watches, Series XNUMX and Ultra Series XNUMX
Name Drop feature
Through the Name Drop feature, you will be able to share all the information with any new person you want. This happens by bringing your Apple Watch closer to the other person's Watch or iPhone. It is worth noting that this feature is available on any iPhone running iOS 17, in addition to being available on watches such as (Apple Watch Ultra and later - Apple Watch Series 7 - Apple Watch SE 2). And that's not the end of it, as there is now the My Card feature as an addition for quick access in the Name Drop feature.
Bug fixes
- Apple has fixed a bug that caused the Climate section in the Home app to appear blank.
- Previously, after turning off Assistive Touch, some white lines would appear on the screen abnormally. Now, after installing the watchOS 10.1 update, this problem will disappear completely.
- A solution to the problem of the lack of synchronization that occurred in the Weather application in the Cities section between the watch and the phone.
- After users complained about the scroll bar suddenly appearing, the problem has been completely resolved with the new update.

شكرا لكم يابستان الفروله🍎
Apple Watch XNUMX After completing this update, I noticed that the battery drains after approximately one hour. It drains very quickly. I wonder what is the reason? It has been on the charger all the time now.
The watch was updated, but after the update, the watch no longer receives phone calls. What should I do?
Unfortunately, disappointment in Apple when you buy the Apple Watch Ultra, the first version (which was released only a year ago), and yet the Double Tap feature is not downloaded.
Frankly, I do not think that the issue is related to the power of the processor, but rather a marketing issue with the aim of marketing the latest products and pressuring users to buy the latest generation
I'm very annoyed with Apple and I don't expect them to drop this feature in last year's version
Hi Mazen 🙋♂️ I really understand your frustration, but let me clarify a few things 🤓. Apple usually introduces new features to its latest devices as part of its marketing strategy, and this is not unusual in the world of technology. However, the Apple Watch Ultra XNUMXst Edition has a wide range of amazing features that are worth appreciating 😌. Regarding the Double Tap feature, yes, this feature is only available on Apple Watch Ultra Series XNUMX and later. We hope you enjoy the watch though! 🚀🍏
Hahahaha, always shining, Mushrif Grocery - Al-Ahsa is lamb
What features does the watchOS 10.1 update offer, and what is meant by strawberries in response to the previous comment?
Hello Sultan Muhammad! 😃 The watchOS 10.1 update offers two main features. The first is “Double Tap,” which allows you to perform basic actions in apps and notifications with a double tap, and the second is “Name Drop,” which enables you to easily share information with new people. 🕹️📲
As for strawberries, this is one of the creative ways I use to spice up my responses. 🍓😉 So, strawberry can be considered as a milestone in iPhoneIslam responses!
Peace, mercy and blessings of God.
I noticed after updating to iwatchos 10.1 that the battery ran out very quickly. Before the update, I used to charge the watch every two days, and after the update, the battery ran out on the same day.
Welcome, Ayman 🙋♂️
Looks like your strawberry (I mean Apple Watch) needs some TLC. Battery draining quickly after an update may be caused by some apps that consume high power. Try closing unnecessary applications and reducing screen brightness. If the problem persists, it may be a good idea to visit an Apple Store or speak with online customer service. Good luck, and I hope you enjoy your walk in the apple orchard (I mean using Apple products) 🍏😉
