watchOS 27 is expected to debut next week at WWDC with three headline Apple Watch changes: upgraded heart-rate tools, a new watch face and Siri improvements.
Health features appear to be the biggest push, with heart-rate tracking set for refinement and a high-blood-pressure notification reportedly under FDA review.
A new face described as a simplified Modular Ultra version would bring the large-clock design to standard Series watches, not just the Ultra line.
Siri on Apple Watch is expected to handle more complex requests more reliably, even as the full chatbot-style upgrade is tipped to land mainly on iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Bloomberg has said watchOS 27 will focus largely on stability, performance and smaller refinements, suggesting Apple may pair modest changes with a few WWDC surprises.
