Perhaps the most Apple moment in today’s keynote at Apple Park was the introduction of Double Tap, a new (sort of) Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 feature that lets you perform actions on the Watch by double tapping your watch hand’s index finger and thumb together.
It’s one of those things that you have to try out yourself to appreciate. Having played with it for a couple of minutes, I have no idea whether it’s going to be useful long-term, but it’s definitely really cool to do things on the Watch without even touching it (well, not counting where it touches your wrist). You can answer or end a call, browse through the Smart Stack, or start and end a timer. It’s really easy to do and it worked every time for me, though I needed to overcome my instinct to do things the regular way.
