Apple rolls out watchOS 2.2 and tvOS 9.2


In addition to rolling out iOS 9.3, Apple has also started rolling out watchOS 2.2 for Apple Watch and tvOS 9.2 for Apple TV with a number of features and improvements.

The watchOS 9.2 for Apple Watch adds support for pairing more than one Apple Watch to a single iPhone. It also includes an image of the user's Apple Watch, complete with their style, color and watch faces to make it easier for users to distinguish between their connected watches. The update also brings new features to the Maps app and several features for developers. 

"When users access the Maps glance or app in watchOS 2.2, they can get quick directions to a location, perform searches, or view nearby points of interest. The new Nearby feature makes it easy for users to browse through categories such as Food, Drinks, Shopping, Travel, and Health, and find the closest places in each category. Tapping a category can give users additional options, such as the Nightlife"  

The tvOS 9.2 add voice dictations to Siri Remote, which allow users to speak in order to search the App store or dictate passwords instead on entering it manually using the remote. To do so, you will have to press and hold the microphone button on the Siri Remote and give command.

The update also adds support for Siri in the App Store on Apple TV 4. Also included is iCloud Photo Library, that will let you access all images on Apple's Cloud from your iPhone, iPad and Macs. Lastly, the update brinds support fro Bluetooth Keyboards, and lets you group the apps into folder, so that you access all your favorite apps from one place.
