It seems that Apple wants to protect its new product no matter where the sun rises. Yes, we are talking once again about the smallest of the family, the Apple Watch, a device that has not stopped generating controversy, especially in the competition that has been three years ahead and to this day they are behind those of Cupertino.
The fact is that it seems that finally Apple has managed to patent the home screen that is shown on the Apple Watch, this It is the bubble screen as apps. It is not the first time that those from Cupertino have obtained a patent of this style and it is that at the time they could patent the grid of applications on the home screen for iOS.
Now history repeats itself and Apple gets a new patent related to its smartwatch. In this case, it is not a patent on the connectors, on the shape of the clock or on its functions. This is a patent on the software layer that the Apple Watch has that affects its home screen.
It seems that the way in which Apple has devised watchOS by showing the watch applications in the form of little circles as floating bubbles is the best way that so far has been devised to make the management of a device of this type is as simple and intuitive as possible.
Apple knows this and unlike other patents in which before launching the product Apple patents certain schemes where it explains what it wants, this time the images that it wanted to patent are directly screenshots of the Apple Watch home screen. Once again, Apple beats many other manufacturers.
