Huawei has brought new features to the Watch D, one of several high-end smartwatches sold by the company. Launched globally last month, the Watch D includes a blood pressure cuff, ECG functionality and Huawei’s suite of health tracking software for €399 in the Eurozone and £349.99 in the UK.
Following the launch of the device, Huawei sought to improve the Watch D software experience with HarmonyOS 2.1.0.368, an update available worldwide. As the changelog below shows, the Watch D can now directly send short replies to WhatsApp messages rather than resorting to taking a paired smartphone. Please note that this feature is only available with Watch D paired to an Android or HarmonyOS device, not iOS.
Additionally, you can reply using a predetermined set of emojis. As usual, HarmonyOS 2.1.0.368 contains undisclosed system stability optimizations. This month’s update is just a 46MB download, though it may still take a while via the Huawei Health app. Please see our launch article for more details on the Watch D and its capabilities.
Before writing and translating for Notebookcheck, I worked for various companies, including Apple and Neowin. I have a BA in International History and Politics from the University of Leeds, which I have since converted to a law degree. Happy to chat on Twitter or Notebookchat.
