Of all the rumors in this roundup, the one I'm most curious about is (not the headset) "widgets" on Apple Watch:
Apple is ready to stop focusing as much attention on full apps as most people do not use them, and will instead put at-a-glance information front and center. Widgets will offer up a quick, interactive way for users to access key information on the Apple Watch.
If these widgets are something end users can build and share ad-hoc – like Shortcuts or old OS X Dashboard widgets – then they could be incredibly fun and useful.
I've slowly gotten over the loss of my Pebble Steel, but Pebble's platform remains unrivaled for customizability. I know I'll never be allowed to have that much fun with an Apple product, but maybe this will give me some of the same utility.
