What's New in Ask Watch AI

2.2.46

November 1, 2026

• Grok Voice 3 with AskWatch Ultra — Live Conversation with xAI's Grok, no key of your own needed, within your daily Ultra Live time, on iPhone, Apple Watch, Mac and in CarPlay, and it can search the web while you talk. Already use your own xAI key? Turn on Prefer Own API Keys to keep it. Previously in v2.2: • Four new AI providers — Moonshot (Kimi), MiniMax, Qwen and Meta, 18 in all. Use them with your own API key; for Kimi, MiniMax and Qwen, pick the Global or China (mainland) region next to the key. • Maps and location — tell your AI where you want to go and it opens Apple Maps for you; it can also use where you are to answer. Works in chat and voice on iPhone, Apple Watch, Mac and in CarPlay. Your location is shared only when you allow it, in Real-Time Context → Location & Maps for AI. • Notes work with more AI models — search and save your notes with models from xAI, Mistral, DeepSeek, Groq, OpenRouter, Perplexity and more, using your own key. • Azure AI Speech — a new voice for reading answers aloud on iPhone, CarPlay, Apple Watch, Apple TV and Mac. Add your own Azure key, pick a region and a voice. • iPhone Duo — Chat, Home, Notes, Settings, Compare and Live Conversation use two columns on the open screen. • Perplexity with your own key works with newly created API keys again — AskWatch now uses Perplexity's new Agent API, with web sources as before. • Apple Watch is easier to use on small screens: larger tap areas in the Medium and Compact layouts, Templates as an icon next to the main button, Voice Chat shows "Listening…" in Compact and fits 40 and 41 mm watches in the Large layout, and a swipe to the right closes it. • OpenAI Live — the first true full-duplex voice model on your Apple Watch, iPhone, Mac and in CarPlay. It listens while it speaks: interrupt it mid-sentence, ask it to search the web, control your home or save a note, and the conversation keeps flowing. Make it your own — 13 voices, three GPT-5.6 models behind it and your own opening line — with your own OpenAI key (BYOK) or with AskWatch Ultra. • Notes — a private notebook your AI can search, save to and edit by voice, on iPhone, Apple Watch, Mac and in CarPlay, and only with the models you allow. • Apple Watch complications work again on watchOS 10 and 11 (Series 4, Series 5 and SE 1st generation). • Gemini 3.8 Live — Live Conversation with Google on its newest real-time voice model, with Home Assistant control, notes and web search; automatic on a subscription, or pick it under Google → Live Conversation → Model with your own key. • Web search in Live Conversation — Gemini Live and Grok Voice search the web while you talk; one switch per provider and device. • An assistant that opens in your words — write your own greeting for Live Conversation, or leave it empty for the default in your language. • Z.ai — the 14th provider: nine GLM models with your own key; GLM 4.7 with Plus, GLM 5.2 with Ultra. • Sources under web answers — the numbered pages behind an answer, with Perplexity, OpenRouter, Anthropic and OpenAI. • Live Conversation — real-time voice chat with OpenAI, xAI (Grok) and Google (Gemini); bring your own key, pick your voice and model. • Grok voices — natural-sounding voices from xAI (Grok) to read AI answers aloud (BYOK) • Action Button — start AI from the iPhone side button or the Apple Watch Ultra Action Button • Model picker on Apple Watch — the watch keeps its own choice, and your pick travels between iPhone and Apple Watch • Live captions — OpenAI gpt-live-transcribe writes your words while you are still speaking (BYOK) • Piper Cloud in five more languages — Russian, Korean, Hindi, Indonesian and Hebrew, no API key needed • Exchange rates in your own currency — pick it in Settings → Finance • Apple CarPlay — voice AI assistant while driving

CarPlay ist nicht dabei

Im Store hieß es dass die App mit CarPlay funktioniert. Das ist nicht der Fall.

Response from developer

Hallo und vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung. CarPlay ist in AskWatch enthalten. Wir haben es ausführlich getestet und nutzen es selbst täglich auf Fahrten. Es tut uns leid, dass es bei Ihnen nicht funktioniert, und wir möchten der Sache gern auf den Grund gehen. Könnten Sie uns bitte an support@askwatch.app schreiben und uns Ihr Fahrzeug bzw. Infotainment-System, Ihr iPhone-Modell, die iOS-Version und die Art der Verbindung (Kabel oder drahtlos) mitteilen? Wir prüfen dann alles gern für Sie. Vielen Dank für Ihre Rückmeldung und die Zusammenarbeit.

Best AI on Watch yet

I’m also developer for Apple Watch apps and, among other jobs, I also train various AI models. Of several different attempts to put AI on Apple Watch, this is the one that remains on my own watch.

The app is far more sophisticated and considered than the others currently on the App Store. Indeed, after programming, several of my own Apple Watch apps, my hat is off to this developer for the sheer length and complexity of his code.

For those of us in the business, sometimes complicated code is needed to deliver the simplest, most usable interface. In this case, it truly shows. My watch is set up so I can immediately access AI from a complication. I get a detailed response from any of more than a dozen models.

Of particular note, the responses for those with the cellular version of Apple Watch are independent of being tethered to an iPhone. This is both amazing and liberating.

For true IT geeks, the app is configurable to an extreme. It did not need this additional level of development, for the defaults are more than adequate for the majority of users.

Absolutely worth the cost, I heartily endorse this app with two big thumbs up.

The app all the AI companies should’ve made

Wow, I’ve been waiting for one of the big AI labs to release an app that let me have conversational AI chats on my watch. This is the real deal. Now I click my watch ultra action button and chat away. It uses the native voice API from Gemini or your preferred vendor. If this was Googles watch app, it would be a home run. That an independent developer built this and supports every major LLM, plus lets you tap into your own subscription with them is crazy.

I just bought the highest cost annual plan even though (1) I have my own credits, an and (2) I normally would buy monthly since the AI world changes fast. This app is awesome.

Response from developer

Thank you for the wonderful review and for the support. It means a lot to an independent developer! The Action button on the Watch Ultra was one of my favourite use cases, so I'm very glad it works well for you. If you have any ideas, feel free to send them via in-app feedback. Michal, AskWatch developer

Génial

Super

Not a very useful app

Used it like twice and hit a rate limit. No thanks.

Response from developer

Hello, thank you for the review and for trying AskWatch. The free tier is quite generous, and thousands of people use it every day over a long period, so a limit after two uses is not what we normally see. It is most often the daily limit of the AI provider behind a free key, which is per model, so switching to another model in the AI tab often helps right away. If you would like us to look into your case, please write to support@askwatch.app, or send feedback from Settings in the app, and we will gladly help. Best regards, The AskWatch team
