Great to see some coverage of the watchOS 10 redesign! https://www.theverge.com/23786155/watchos-10-preview-apple-watch
Not true that the Smart Stack is limited to first-party apps, tho. 🙂
@lorihc love it so much.
Been using them a lot.
Wonder.. why not make widgets view available from press and hold at the bottom of the screen anywhere in watchOS, like control center was?

@lorihc Just curious, why is there a now playing widget and a separate now playing controls widget?
@AlexHadfield If you add the Now Playing widget, you can restart audio that hasn’t been active in the past couple minutes. I prefer to let the widget show up automatically when audio is already playing.
@lorihc @AlexHadfield I just wish we had skip forward and back by 15 second controls in the now playing widget - now often needing to open the Now Playing app for that
Just listened to the related Vergecast podcast, and this came up again in the context of third-party audio apps. Like the now playing controls in iOS Control Center and Lock Screen, watchOS 10 shows whatever audio is playing. I’m listening via Overcast on the phone.
