Apple developer website recently posted about the introduction of new developer-related features for Apple watchOS 3.2 on currently shipping watchOS devices.
Introduced in watchOS 3.2, is the Theater Mode which lets users quickly mute the sound on their Apple Watch and avoid waking the screen on wrist raise. Users still receive notifications (including haptics) while in Theater Mode, which they can view by tapping the screen or pressing the Digital Crown.
Apple watchOS 3.2 update also includes SiriKit. Users can ask Siri on their Apple Watch to book a ride, send a message, make a payment, or make other requests that an app can handle.Also read: Welcome BlackPods: Apple AirPods in Jet Black Colour
