According to 9to5Mac, the face can also use the latest complications for daily steps, heart rate and Readiness, available on <strong>Apple Watch Ultra 4<\/strong> and <strong>Apple Watch Series 12<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The changes apply to the standard Modular face, which continues to evolve alongside the other variants in the family: Modular Compact, Modular Ultra and Siri Modular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Modular\u2019s 13 new colours<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new shades listed by 9to5Mac are <strong>Olive, Burgundy, Sand, Magenta, Pale Succulent, Wildflower Blue, Navy Blue, Light Umber, Chambray Blue, Limestone, Camel, Sage and Mulberry<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To select them, open the <strong>Color<\/strong> screen when customising the Modular face. Previous options remain available: scrolling to the bottom of the list reveals the <strong>\u201cTap to add more colors\u201d<\/strong> button, which lets you browse and add other shades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The expanded palette therefore offers more choice without removing colours used in previous configurations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Complications available on the new Apple Watch models<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Modular can also display the latest <strong>Daily Steps<\/strong>, <strong>Heart Rate<\/strong> and <strong>Readiness<\/strong> complications, available in several sizes. The first two show daily step counts and heart rate, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to 9to5Mac, these specific complications are exclusive to <strong>Apple Watch Ultra 4 and Series 12<\/strong>. That restriction applies to the complications mentioned and should not automatically be extended to the face\u2019s new colour options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The different formats let users choose how to display the data directly on Modular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Frequently asked questions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What changes in the Modular face with watchOS 27?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It gains 13 new colours. The face also benefits from the Daily Steps, Heart Rate and Readiness complications on compatible models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Are the previous colours still available?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. On the Color screen, scroll to the bottom of the list and use \u201cTap to add more colors\u201d to access other existing shades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Which Apple Watch models support these complications?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to 9to5Mac, the new complications are available exclusively on Apple Watch Ultra 4 and Apple Watch Series 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Do these changes apply to Modular or Siri Modular?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The article describes updates to the standard Modular face. Siri Modular is a separate variant in the same family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Final thoughts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The update expands Modular\u2019s customisation options, with more colours to change its appearance and new formats for checking data from the wrist. For anyone interested in the complications mentioned, the Apple Watch model they use remains a deciding factor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>watchOS 27 enhances the Modular watch face with 13 new colors and complications for Daily Steps, Heart Rate, and Readiness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":3432,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3429","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mag.certideal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3429","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mag.certideal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mag.certideal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mag.certideal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mag.certideal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3429"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/mag.certideal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3429\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3461,"href":"https:\/\/mag.certideal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3429\/revisions\/3461"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mag.certideal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3432"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mag.certideal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3429"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mag.certideal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3429"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mag.certideal.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3429"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
