3. Text-to-speech functionality is being improved for a more reliable experience.
4. Permissions granted on your phone will automatically carry over to a new Wear OS watch during setup.

6. Wear OS is gaining deeper integration with Google Home, providing enhanced device controls including lights and camera previews.
7. Wear OS 4 is set to launch in the fall of 2023, potentially coinciding with the release of the Pixel Watch 2.
