watchOS 2 is a massive upgrade over the first-gen watchOS software that shipped with the Apple Watch earlier this year, and comes with support for native apps, time-lapse watch faces as well as a ton of other under the hood changes. And if you're a fan of Digital Touch, then you'll be pleased to learn that the feature now supportsmultiple colors in one single drawing, allowing you to be more expressive than before.

If you’re currently sitting on watchOS 1.x and have the option to update to watchOS 2, then we highly recommend that you make the leap straight away, as new software tend to fix a lot of cunning bugs and problems. And of course, you get to reap the benefits of Apple’s latest and greatest features as well.
