Även watchOS 5 är släppt

On 17 september, 2018, in Apple, Apple Watch, iPhone, Nyheter, Tillbehör, by Jonny

Nu när man inte längre har någon Apple Watch, hamnade detta längre ner på listan än vad jag hade räknat med.

Men självklart har Apple även släppt watchOS 5 ikväll och nu kan du även hämta den uppdateringen. Den dåliga nyheten är att watchOS 5 inte stödjer Apple Watch gen 1, vilket är den modellen som jag hade. Ytterligare en anledning till att beställa en ny klocka. 😀

Uppdateringen hämtas och hanteras via appen Watch på din iPhone. Var beredda på att det tar tid att hämta och installera uppdateringen. Ett tips är att inte göra det alldeles för sent på kvällen.

Apple Watch måste vara ansluten till Wi-Fi och laddad till minst 50% när du installerar uppdateringen. Starta inte om Apple Watch eller ta bort den från laddaren innan uppdateringen är klar.

Nyheterna i watchOS 5
Tyvärr så har jag inte fått tag i dem på svenska och ingen översättning via Google Translate… men ni kan även läsa om dem på www.apple.com/se/watchos/watchos-5/.
