Aaron here for Zollotech and today Apple released watchOS 7.2 on all supported devices., So, basically, series three Apple, watches and newer are able to get this update. Now there’s, also additional updates that Apple released for watchOS for older devices watch iOS 6.3. But this video will only pertain to watch us 7.2. Now, along with Wawa 7.2 Apple, also released iOS 14.3 iPadOS14.3 Mac OS 11.1 and tvOS 14.3, along with some applications such as final cut, pro updates as well.. So a huge amount of updates today and there’s a lot of changes with all of these that kind of work together.. So the first thing let’s take a look at the size of this update., And this update came in at 284 megabytes on my my series. Six Apple watch., It may vary a little bit but it’s about 300 megabytes. Give or take depending on which device you have.. Now the first time you pick up your watch and go into it. You’re not going to notice a whole lot new. But if you go to the settings, tab go to general and then about you can tell that it’s new by looking at the build number. Now there’s. Actually a couple build numbers for this.. My build number is 18 S, five 63, but this can vary by a digit or so depending on the device. You have for some reason: there’s two, five, six three and five six four., So something’s a little different there.
Now. The first major feature is fitness. Plus. Now you will need that on your iPhone as well., So fitness plus is found in the fitness app or activity. App is what it used to be called anyway.. So in the fitness app you can see down here at the bottom there’s a new tab called fitness plus.. Now this is a subscription service for workouts, with different trainers and things like that. And it’s, not showing up for everyone for some reason in the supported countries. But it is showing up. It just kind of showed up when I closed the app and went back into it. Now I do have my watch updated and paired with it., And maybe that helped. I’m not sure, but some people are still having an issue seeing it And on the iPad it may be a separate app as well., So some people are saying it’s available. Some are not, but when it’s out you’ll have the ability to work out using different trainers, different types of work, no workouts., You can see yoga core strength, treadmill. All of these up here., So maybe you want to do rowing.. You can go into rowing and do different rowing workouts.. If you have a rowing machine., So you have all of those options. It’s a subscription service and it’s available in Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States. Other countries will probably be coming a little bit later. But right now those are the supported countries.
. Now, the first time you use your Apple watch with watchOS 7.2 and you go into the health app you’ll be presented with some new information.. Now I took some screenshots of this since you can’t go back into it once it’s set up, but you’ll get new notifications for cardio fitness levels, where it will actually keep track of this., And it cannotify you if you turn this on., So it says cardio. Fitness can be a strong indicator of your overall physical health and a of your long term health.. So as you go through this, it tells you more information based off your age and London conditions, pregnancy and heart condition. And then, after confirming some details, it’ll say about cardio fitness levels and it keeps track of VO two max., And it will tell you if you Have low cardio fitness levels, so you can turn on notifications for that., So once it’s set up it shows you now. I don’t wear this every day., So this level is very low and you can see it’s from a few days back, but in general it will keep track of that and notify you and help. You keep more fit., Also there’s, some updates to ECG as well. And again, the first time you go into this. You’Ll have it. And it will say the ECG has new capabilities.. Now your particular area has to have this ability as well., So you can actually we’ll. Go through and show you what the setup looks like, but it says it can now check for atrial fibrillation at higher rates.
And let you know if the result is inconclusive due to poor recording.. So maybe you don’t have the watch band tight enough.. It will. Let you know., And so those options have been added to health, to help you with your watch and your overall fitness. Now other than that. There are not any other physical changes that you can see here, but there’s other additional updates as well.. So, for example, if you have an Apple watch series, four or later, you now have support for ECG in Taiwan.. Now again, this is due to local governments working with Apple to allow this.. So it makes a difference whether or not they allow it in your country. There’s. Also, support for braille displays with voiceover now and then there’s support for family setup in new countries such as Bahrain, Canada, Norway in Spain., And it says, cellular models of the Apple watch series four or later and Apple watch. Se are supported., And so those are all the updates that they’ve actually mentioned whether or not there’s bug fixes. I’m, not sure, but battery life over the past well day is doing pretty well, even after updating and just using it regularly. I’m getting through the day with About 50 left, or so, depending on what you’re doing, if you go for a workout, take a walk or workout, depending on what you’re doing., If you’re streaming music, while you’ll get less battery life. But I easily get through a day and a half to two days.
On a single charge, with watch 7.2. Now, if you’re, a beta tester, this is the same version.. So I didn’t normally mention that at the beginning of the video, but if you’re a beta tester and you were beta testing, watchOS 7.2 it’s, the exact same version just uninstalled, the beta profile on your phone install and then make sure that your watch has restarted.. You won’t have the beta profile anymore and you’ll. Just have the update. You were using it earlier than everyone else: was. And it’s the same version, but now you’ll have fitness plus as well. And so there’s. Nothing else significant in this particular update. Uh. This is not a new watch face.. This is just using the watch app Lummi., So I use this app called loony and then you can it’s a paid, app though. And if you use Lumi to tell you when sunset is for different photography and things like that, it tells you when golden hour is So you can take the best sunset photos or sunrise photos, and you can see that here. So it’s an app and then you can make that watch face.. If you have it it’s, not a special watch face with this update, but other than that that’s. All there is in this particular update., I think it’s pretty good. WatchOS is pretty stable to begin with, so it should be decent.. I haven’t had any problems on 7.2. And, if you’d like to get your hands on this wallpaper, of course, I’ll link it in the description below.
