On November 9, 2026, Meta’s Muse account announced support for Apple Watch and Wear OS, TechCrunch reported. Apple’s U.S. App Store lists a Muse companion for Apple Watch and gives the software requirements for the watch and its iPhone app.
What the announcement means for Apple Watch and Wear OS
Meta’s announcement named both smartwatch platforms. For Apple Watch, the U.S. App Store listing specifies watchOS 9.0 or later; the iPhone app requires iOS 18.0 or later. Apple’s Muse listing labels the app free with in-app purchases.
TechCrunch reported voice calls, text messages and dictation as smartwatch interactions. Early user accounts describe a more varied experience: some people said dictation transcribed their speech and returned a text reply, while others reported that live voice or notifications weren’t working for them. These are individual launch-period reports, not a single consistent account of how the app behaved. (Apple Watch app discussion)
Before using a watch-based assistant, check that your devices meet the listed software requirements and read the app’s privacy and accuracy disclosures.
One user said the watch was useful for reaching Muse away from a phone or computer when the watch had an internet connection, but scrolling through long replies felt awkward. That’s a practical trade-off of getting an assistant’s responses on a small screen. (User discussion of Muse on watches)
What the App Store says about privacy and accuracy
The U.S. App Store privacy label records Meta’s disclosure that data linked to a user may include health and fitness, financial, location, contact, content, browsing and search information, as well as identifiers, usage data and sensitive information. Apple says it has not verified the developer’s privacy practices. The listing also carries a developer warning that Muse may be inaccurate or take unexpected actions. Apple’s Muse listing
