apple-iwatch-concept

We are only two days far of Apple biggest launch ever. Biggest in the sense, as Apple will have lot in its pockets to bring including its first ever wearable i.e. iWatch. Apart from this, iPhone 6, iPad Air 2 and possibly a ‘refreshed’ iPad Mini is also in Apple’s list. Coming back to the Apple wearable, we have received important leaks in previous few days regarding it. Yesterday, we caught a bit sad story about iWatch battery. Before that, some specs regarding iWatch also surfaced. Now a new report tells that Apple iWatch will come loaded with App Store, having some third party apps.

As per new report, small popular developers including social ones (Facebook, Twitter) have been seeded with a pre-release version of Apple SDK for wearables under strict NDA (non-disclosure agreements).  Apple will show some of these apps ‘demos’ on Tuesday event and demonstrate their working. Apple will ship iWatch in early 2015. It will give developers considerable time to give their apps final touches. Moreover, Apple wearable will have deep integration with iOS 8 features i.e. Handoff, Continuity and Widgets. This will make it easy to sync content between iPhone and iWatch.

Other than that, fitness features will also be there. A mapping functionality will also accompany the device. We still not have some clear indication of how the Apple wearable will look like. So for that, we need to wait for its launch on Tuesday.
