The videos released by Apple include one that shows Watch users how to use the new Walkie Talkie feature, which was integrated into the Apple Watch via watchOS 5. The steps are simple and there are three of them. First, you select a friend, press the appropriate button to talk and release it to listen.

The second video shows how you can customize the clock face. All you need to do is press firmly on the clock face, tap Customize, drag and tap to get to the areas you want to change, and finally rotate the Digital Crown to implement the changes. When finished, press the Digital Crown twice to adjust the new clock face.

The third video shows Apple Watch Series 4 users how to track their Activity Rings. To view the rings, open the Activity app. Scroll down to see the statistics for Move, Exercise, and Stand. Continue scrolling down to see other data, such as total steps taken, total distance traveled, etc.

And the latest video reveals how you can stream Apple Music through the Apple Watch Series 4. First, you raise your wrist (the one with the Apple Watch) to your mouth. Tell Siri what you want to listen to, or you can open the Music app and select a playlist, a song, or a specific artist or album.
