CNN gains an Apple Watch complication with time travel
CNN is a preferred news choice both on and off screen for many. The app for iPhone has great features that keep you in-the-know with breaking news and top stories. Now bringing enhancements to give you even more when you are on the go, the CNN for iPhone app supports an Apple Watch complication and time travel.
New Watch features
Take a peek at your Watch face for the latest headlines with the CNN complication. You will see a nicely-displayed headline brief and can check out the full story with a tap. Another terrific addition is the use of iOS 9’s time travel feature. Just roll back your digital crown to see the top headlines in the past. Even though you will see the headline faded, you can still go directly to the story with a tap. And as a reminder, the Glance feature is also available.
