An AI assistant on the wrist
Meta has brought its AI assistant Muse to Apple Watch and smartwatches running Android's Wear OS. Users can now interact with Muse from their wrists without needing a phone.
Three ways to access
There are three ways to reach Muse on smartwatches: typing a message, dictating requests by voice or starting a voice call directly. In the Apple Watch app, Meta's Muse character sits at the center of the interface, and a shortcut that can be added to the watch face provides faster access.
What Muse can do
Muse can help users manage their emails, meetings and bills by connecting their accounts. It can also handle tasks such as making restaurant reservations, placing grocery orders, setting goals and shopping.
Expanding across devices
Muse launched on the App Store in September. Meta released an iPad version of the app last month and recently opened Spaces, a feature for running focused conversations around specific topics. Users in the US began making video calls with a Muse avatar last week. The smartwatch support continues the company's efforts to make the assistant available across different devices.
