Google’s Gemini AI Set to Enhance Wear OS Smartwatches with Smarter Task Management

After confirming plans to extend its Gemini AI beyond smartphones, Google appears ready to bring these smart capabilities to Wear OS-powered smartwatches, including Samsung’s Galaxy Watch line. Recent leaks suggest that Samsung’s upcoming One UI 8 update will integrate Gemini Actions, enabling smartwatch users to get intelligent responses to queries, summarize emails, and perform various automated tasks right from their wrist. This expansion aims to boost the productivity and convenience of smartwatches by leveraging the same AI-driven automation features already found on smartphones.

The discovery comes from a detailed teardown of leaked One UI 8 APK files by Android Authority, in collaboration with AssembleDebug. Inside the Google Assistant app’s code, references to Gemini Actions hint at a range of new functionalities in development. These features include managing calendar events, summarizing emails, and answering general questions—functions that transform the smartwatch from a simple notification device into a more proactive assistant capable of handling everyday tasks on the go.

According to the code, users may also be able to interact with Gemini through customizable tiles, allowing quick access to specific AI-powered actions like rescheduling meetings or checking the weather. Additionally, there are indications that the smartwatch interface will provide easy controls to mute the AI’s voice feedback, giving users flexible options for interaction depending on their environment. This combination of voice and touch controls aims to make the AI assistant more intuitive and less intrusive during use.

While the leaked code strongly suggests these features will debut on Samsung Galaxy Watches with One UI 8, industry insiders speculate that the Gemini AI rollout could extend to other Wear OS smartwatches as well. Notably, Samsung might skip the intermediate One UI 7 update entirely and move directly to One UI 8 for its wearables, signaling a significant leap in software capabilities. This development reflects Google and Samsung’s commitment to making smartwatches smarter and more helpful through AI innovation.

Apple Watch Series 10 Prototype Leak Shows New Unseen Health Sensor

Apple Watch Series 10 Prototype Leak Reveals New Health Sensor Design

While the Apple Watch Series 10 launched last year with its new wide-angle OLED display, it didn’t introduce any groundbreaking health monitoring sensors. However, recent leaks of a purported Apple Watch Series 10 prototype have revealed something intriguing: a redesigned sensor layout with an additional, unidentified health sensor. This discovery hints that Apple may be preparing to incorporate new health features in future versions of the device, such as blood glucose and blood pressure monitoring.

The leaked images, shared by tipster @StellaFudge on X (formerly Twitter), show a prototype with the same text on the rear panel as the current Series 10 model. However, a key difference is immediately apparent in the sensor arrangement. The new prototype features sensors that are noticeably smaller and repositioned closer to the center of the watch’s rear panel. This change creates additional space, which is then occupied by a new light ring, suggesting the presence of a sensor not seen on the Series 10 released to the public.

The light ring could potentially be a sensor for new health-related functionalities that Apple has not yet revealed. While the tipster indicated that the default applications are missing on this prototype and the watch is running an unreleased version of watchOS 11, the presence of the light ring is a strong indication that Apple is experimenting with new types of health monitoring features that may be included in future Apple Watch models.

At this point, it remains unclear what specific function the new sensor will serve, as the prototype lacks the necessary software to fully activate or showcase its capabilities. Nonetheless, the leak fuels speculation that Apple is working on next-generation health monitoring tools, possibly aimed at tracking more complex health metrics like blood glucose and blood pressure—features that have been increasingly requested by users and health experts alike.
