Apple Watch’s AI features for rewinding and recapping conversations begin beta testing

Apple has begun beta testing new Apple Watch "Audio Intelligence" features that use AI to help users rewind and recap conversations, as well as take notes on what was said. The features, which are rolling out to testers now, aim to address a common pain point: forgetting key details from in-person conversations or meetings. The move deepens Apple's push to bring on-device AI capabilities to its wearable lineup, putting the watch in more direct competition with AI note-taking products from rivals. Investors will be watching adoption of the beta features, integration with the broader Apple ecosystem, and whether the functionality expands to more Apple Watch models or requires newer hardware.
