The Pixel Watch 4 is getting new one-handed gestures and better smart replies
"Double pinch works similar to existing gestures on Apple and Samsung smartwatches. You can scroll through alerts, snooze an alarm, send the first suggested smart reply to a message, control music playback, and take a photo by tapping your index finger and thumb together twice. Google says it will also "soon be adding the ability to answer and end calls" using a double pinch."
"Smart replies are being improved with the introduction of a new custom on-device language model based on Google's Gemma. It generates a list of suggested responses based on the context of a chat without relying on a connection to your phone and Google says it's now twice as fast and utilizes one-third as much memory as the model smart replies previously used."
WearOS 6.1 is rolling out to Pixel Watch 2, 3, and 4, with the Pixel Watch 4 receiving two new one-handed gestures: double pinch and wrist turn. Double pinch enables scrolling alerts, snoozing alarms, sending the first suggested smart reply, controlling playback, and taking photos, with call answer/end coming soon. Wrist turn silences incoming calls or dismisses notifications. On-screen hints will indicate when gestures are available. Smart replies use a new on-device language model based on Google's Gemma, producing contextual suggestions twice as fast and using one-third the memory, improving reply quality without relying on a phone connection.
