OnePlus Watch 2 rolls out new update that enhances functionality and adds two new apps
OnePlus continues to refine its popular smartwatch, the OnePlus Watch 2, with a new software update. This update, designated A.94, introduces a variety of features designed to enhance the user experience and expand the watch's capabilities.
As spotted by @1NormalUsername on X (and reported by Android Authority), one of the standout additions is the inclusion of two new apps: Relax and Barometer. The Relax app guides users through breathing exercises to promote calmness and stress reduction, while the Barometer app provides readings of atmospheric pressure, a feature potentially useful for outdoor enthusiasts and weather watchers. Here is the full changelog provided:
The update also addresses a range of other aspects of the watch's functionality. Workout data display has been optimized, and users can now access the Music Controller directly from the workout screen with a simple swipe. The Phone app in Power Saver mode has also been expanded to include contact display, favorites, and call logs.
Additionally, the update introduces a toggle for Tap to Wake, refines the process for removing watch faces, and optimizes various workout and health algorithms. Other known issues have also been addressed to ensure a smoother user experience.
The workout screen itself has been enhanced to display five fat-burning zones instead of three, and a swipe gesture now offers quick access to the Music Controller. Further enhancements include a new battery tile on the home screen and a toggle for the Tap to Wake feature. This update (full version OPWWE231_11_A.94) is currently rolling out.
