At WWDC, Apple introduced several updates related to widgets, particularly in watchOS 26. One of the key features is the introduction of relevance widgets, which can display multiple upcoming calendar events and other relevant information based on context, such as time of day or location. These widgets are designed to appear in the Smart Stack on Apple Watch, providing users with timely and contextual information.
In watchOS 26, you can customize widgets to show specific calendar events, and the system can suggest multiple cards in the Smart Stack for overlapping events. This is particularly useful for displaying calendar events that occur simultaneously, allowing users to see multiple events in a single view.
For more detailed information on how to create and configure these widgets, you can refer to the session What’s new in watchOS 26 (09:44).
