Meta's Muse AI assistant now works on Apple Watch. The company updated the Muse app for iOS today to add watch support, so people who use Muse can reach the assistant right from their wrist.
What changed
The watch app brings the Muse character to your wrist. You get three ways to talk to it: text it, dictate a message by voice, or call it. A Muse complication is also available. A complication is a small shortcut you place on your watch face, and here it gives quick access to the assistant.
What Muse is
Muse is Meta's personal AI agent. An agent is an AI helper that can complete tasks for you, not just answer questions. It is available as a standalone app and is also built into Instagram, Facebook and other Meta apps. Meta designed a yeti-like character to represent Muse. It has become popular, and it is front and center on the watch.
Who it affects
This is mainly for people who wear an Apple Watch and already use Muse or other Meta apps. They can now ask the assistant for help without pulling out a phone. The watch app looks similar to the Muse Charm, a companion device Meta announced in September.
What is not known yet
The source does not say what Muse costs, which watch models or software versions are supported, or exactly which tasks Muse can do from the wrist. It also does not explain how the watch version handles privacy. Anyone who plans to use it should check the app's details and settings first.
The takeawayIf you wear an Apple Watch and use Muse, update the iOS app to get wrist access, and check privacy settings first.
