Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4 are here, and later this year they’ll get even more powerful with two new features: Siri Recap and Live Rewind. Here are the details.
#1: Siri Recap
Siri AI is a major tentpole of watch OS 27, and later this year there’s a powerful Siri addition coming to Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4. It’s called Siri Recap. Here’s what it does, per Apple: Siri Recap ambiently takes notes on your conversations throughout your day and creates high-level Apple Intelligence–generated summaries that you can use later to jog your memory, so you can stay present in the moment. Your summaries auto-delete after 7 days if you choose not to save them. Siri Recap seems like the kind of feature that no one was necessarily asking for, but it could add valuable utility if the privacy protections are done right.
#2: Live Rewind
Live Rewind is another ‘Audio Intelligence’ feature coming to the new Apple Watch models later this year. It provides a more direct way to revisit something that was just said. Here’s how it works per Apple: Live Rewind recalls what was just said in the last 15 seconds by showing a text snippet on your Apple Watch when you double-press the Digital Crown, so you can catch something you missed or are less familiar with. You can ask Siri about the content of the snippet or simply save it to the Siri app.
Apple is expected to introduce both new Apple Watch features in watch OS 27.3, which should launch in beta very soon. What do you think of the Siri Recap and Live Rewind features coming to Apple Watch? Let us know in the comments. You can buy Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4 discounted from Amazon, or shop older models on Apple’s refurbished store.
