Apple Watch to get iPhone ‘Companion app’ – report
9to5Mac shows screenshots of various options, such as the ability to mirror iPhone notifications and PIN locks for Apple Watch security

MANILA, Philippines – Screenshots of the Apple Watch’s complementary application, internally referred to as “Companion,” have recently surfaced, showing off some of the potential features of the Apple Watch by virtue of the settings that can be configured.

The report from 9to5Mac shows screenshots of various options, such as the ability to mirror iPhone notifications and PIN locks for Apple Watch security.

Aside from this, there are options for how the user wants to respond or receive a message or notification. There is also an option to respond to messages using voice dictation or through audio messages.

The report also states the watch will automatically unlock if the connected phone is unlocked.

The report states the need to configure the watch’s applications using your connected iPhone, presumably due to the difficulty in adjusting the icons on the Apple Watch’s small screen. – Rappler.com
