With support for the built-in speaker in ZenWatch 2 (WI501Q), you can now make phone calls when connected to your smartphone via Bluetooth, set audible alarms, and hear app notification alerts and sound effects.

Wrist gestures

You can now scroll through cards, open apps, return to the watch face, and more with simple, and intuitive wrist gestures.

Screen dimming gesture

You can now instantly turn into ambient mode for extra privacy and reduce battery drain by an intuitive gesture. To activate, simply lower your wrist to remove from the usual viewing orientation after interacting with your ZenWatch 2.

Audio messages
