watchOS 26 introduces Control Center customisation
Apple just announced watchOS 26 at WWDC 2025, and the big news is you can now personalize your Apple Watch Control Center with custom toggles—finally making it feel more like your iPhone.
This feature is live in the first developer beta, so it's already getting some hands-on time.
TL;DR
watchOS 26 introduces customizable controls
You're no longer stuck with fixed settings—the new update lets you add or swap out toggles to fit how you actually use your watch.
The Action Button on Apple Watch Ultra also works with these new controls, giving even more flexibility.
Plus, there's a fresh Custom Controls API for developers to create their own toggles, and you can transfer controls from your iPhone without needing extra apps on your watch—so storage stays free for what matters.
