Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

CTOnews.com reported on March 28 that Apple today pushed the watchOS 9.4 update (build number: 20T253) to Apple Watch users, 42 days after the last release.

Apple watchOS 9.4 can be downloaded for free through the Apple Watch app on iPhone by opening the app and entering "General" > "Software updates". To install the new software, Apple Watch needs at least 50% power and needs to be placed on the charger.

Apple watchOS 9.4 update adds support for new emoji emoji characters, including donkey, goose, blackbird, head shake, hyacinth, pea pod, etc. The update also changes the wake-up alarm so that it can no longer be muted by muting gestures to prevent it from being accidentally canceled.

The summary update of CTOnews.com is as follows:

Wake-up alarms are no longer muted by "masking mute" gestures to avoid accidental cancellation during sleep.

Moldova and Ukraine now support cycle tracking using retrospective ovulation estimates and cycle deviation alerts.

AFib historical records are now available in Colombia, Malaysia, Moldova, Thailand and Ukraine.

In addition, the watchOS 9.4 update has a hidden feature that allows users to delete built-in applications directly from Apple Watch. Apple did not mention this feature in its updated release notes, but a supporting document on removing built-in applications from various devices has been updated.

After updating to watchOS 9.4 or later, the following applications can be removed directly from Apple Watch:

Activity, water depth, emergency alarm, search, heart rate, map, wallet, training, world clock

Apple warned that removing built-in apps could affect the core functions of the device. For example, if you delete the heart rate application, Apple Watch will not be able to send high heart rate, low heart rate, arrhythmia, and aerobic fitness notifications.

It should be noted that due to the cache configuration problem of Apple node servers in various regions, the upgrade and update time may be slightly delayed in some places, usually within half an hour, not too long.
