The new Apple Watch will use microphone and other sensors to generate AI recaps of your day

Apple will announce the new Apple Watch lineup later today, and Mark Gurman at Bloomberg has the early scoop. He reports that the Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4 will include a new AI feature that ambiently listens to the microphone, GPS, and uses other sensor data, to generate daily recaps of what you did, including conversation summaries. Gurman says the feature does not store audio recordings, and can be controlled to run all day long, or only when at certain locations.

And generated Recaps will be stored inside the new Siri app. The new Apple Watch will use microphone and other sensors to generate AI recaps of your day. WatchOS 27 code reveals four changes for Apple Watch Ultra 4, more Ryan Christoffel Sep 8 2026.

Apple plans to announce an all-new "Readiness" app during its "Surprise and Shine" event this Wednesday, according to Bloomberg ‘s Mark Gurman. In a social media post today, Gurman said the "Readiness" app will be a "variant" of the existing Vitals app on the Apple Watch.

"The idea is to better compete with software from Whoop and Oura," he said. For example, Oura’s smart rings offer a daily "Readiness Score" from 0 to 100 that shows how prepared your body is for the day.

Introduced on watchOS 11, the Vitals app consolidates your key health metrics, including your average heart rate, respiratory rate, blood oxygen, wrist temperature, and sleep duration from the previous night. Based on many of the same metrics, the Readiness app would likely show you how recovered your body is for activity.

Evidence of the "Readiness" app in watchOS 27 beta code was already discovered a few days ago by a forum member known as "pdfu." The app will be unveiled alongside the Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4. Gurman previously reported that both of these new models will feature continuous heart rate sensing, regardless of whether you are actively exercising.
