iWatch Coming in September, Guide to iOS Battery Drain

Apple is building an iWatch that will help you keep up with notifications, track your activity/sleep, and might even tell you about sun overexposure. There are simply too many juicy but unconfirmed iWatch rumors going around. The latest rumor suggests that the iWatch will be launched by September. We don’t know what the device will look like, but Apple could release multiple versions for men and women.

Apple is expected to update iOS 8 to make it fully compatible with the iWatch. With suppliers starting to deliver FCPB samples to Apple for validation, it is only a matter of time before the project gets fully rolling. The rumored timeline does make sense, but things could always change.
