This app is fantastic. The naming though… makes it seem like it’s only a watch app. The iOS app is full featured too.

• 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.
Previously in v2.2:
• 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 OpenAI key (BYOK).
• 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.

• 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.

2.2.38 6d ago
• NEW: Gemini 3.8 Live — Live Conversation with Google now runs on Google's newest real-time voice model, including Home Assistant control, notes and web search. With a subscription it is used automatically; with your own Google key pick it under Google → Live Conversation → Model.
• NEW: Web search in Live Conversation — Gemini Live and Grok Voice can search the web while you talk; one switch per provider and device.
• NEW: Notes in Live Conversation work together with web search on the built-in Gemini models; "list my notes" now pages through long lists.
• IMPROVED: The built-in Google model for AskWatch+ is Gemini 3.7 Flash (Google retires Gemini 2.5 on 20 Oct 2026 — a saved 2.5 selection switches automatically). When Google is busy, the answer arrives after a short retry instead of "Server error (503)".
• IMPROVED: Support and feedback forms accept files up to 12 MB and compress videos; Send Logs is reliable on slow connections.
• IMPROVED: Apple Watch no longer sends recordings that are too short to contain speech.
• FIXED: Home Assistant kept using your home-network address after you left Wi-Fi; CarPlay Live reconnects cleanly; tapping Done in a provider's settings no longer rewrites an unchanged key.
