Apple has added two new apps, “Siren” and “Depth,” to the App Store that are designed specifically for the Apple Watch Ultra.
Siren is intended for use in emergency scenarios, such as in case of being lost or injured and needing to alert others of their position. Long-pressing the Action button on the Apple Watch Ultra causes Siren to produce a distinctive 86-decibel sound pattern audible up to 600 feet (180 meters) away.
The Depth application in Ultra watch is there for use in recreational underwater sports up to 40 meters (130 feet), including snorkeling, free diving, and swimming pool play.
Users are able to view their current depth, water temperature, time spent underwater, and a maximum depth of 130 feet (40 meters). It can be activated automatically when the Apple Watch Ultra is submerged or manually, like any other app.
