Here are all the changes coming to Siri Face with watchOS 5

By Andrew Myrick 0 comments Last updated June 17, 2018

Regardless of whether it was iOS 12 or watchOS 5, there are a lot of new Siri features coming. When watchOS 4 was released, Apple included a new Siri Face for Watch owners. Apple claimed that this was going to be the “Smartest Watch Face Ever”.

Once watchOS 5 hits the Watch this Fall, there will be a new and improved Siri Face. Today, we’re going to take a look at some of the new features coming to the Siri Watch Face.

What’s new with the Siri Face

Instead of relying more on your device, the new Siri Face will take advantage of machine learning. This will allow for your different complications to be more personalized across the board.

For example, if you are an avid sports fan, the score of your favorite team will appear. If you are nearing the time for you to leave work, then a Maps complication will give you an idea of traffic.

There will also be other suggestions to interact with the Music or Podcast app, depending on your routine. Finally, Apple is opening the Siri Face to third-party developers, so your favorite apps will appear as well.

How to set up the Siri Face using watchOS 5

When it comes to the actual set up of this new Siri Face, things are pretty straightforward. Apple didn’t adjust the way that you actually customize the watch face to your liking.

Here are the steps you need to take to set up the Watch Face:

  1. Open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone
  2. Select the Face Gallery tab from the bottom
  3. Tap the Siri Face
  4. From here, you will want to tap the Add button on the Siri Face
  5. Then, you can customize the color of the background – Original or Gray
  6. Choose the Complications for the Top Left and Top Right

While this gets the Siri Face set up for your Watch, there are even more things to customize. You will want to go through and adjust the different Data Sources that the Siri Face will use.

  1. Open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone
  2. Under the My Faces section, select the Siri Face
  3. Below Complications, go through the Data Sources section
  4. Toggle on and off any information you don’t want to be shared with Siri

After everything has been customized, you will be able to set the Siri Face as your current Watch Face. Additionally, if you have already enabled the Siri Watch Face, you can swipe to the right on your Watch until you find the face.

Conclusion

Thanks to the Machine Learning features, these should help make the watch face even more useful over time. Apple seems to really be ramping up development with Siri and watchOS 5 is just another example.

Let us know what you think about the new Siri Watch Face in the comments below. Do you think we will see even more features added in the near future? Or do you think it will be smaller updates from here on out?
