BGR Spotlights 10 Apple Watch Features, From iPhone Finding to 90-Day Ring Pauses

Summary
BGR’s latest roundup highlights 10 underused Apple Watch tools that go well beyond notifications, including iPhone tracking, Apple TV control, camera remote functions and automatic Mac unlocking.
Recent models add some of the most practical upgrades: Precision Finding for nearby iPhones on Series 9 or Ultra 2 with iPhone 15, plus one-handed Double Tap and Wrist Flick gestures on supported watches.
Several features target everyday convenience and health, such as a red-screen flashlight, noise alerts after more than 3 minutes above a chosen threshold, and Focus-linked watch faces that switch automatically.
Apple also lets users pause Activity Rings for up to 90 days or lower goals by day, while offline music syncing can turn the watch into a phone-free music player with Bluetooth headphones.
