Apple watch (wOS 26) support

ZacharyCunningham

Loving WatchOS 26 as they’ve finally included the Notes app - what’s more, the formatting and hyperlink navigation works!

This is super handy for me to tick of my daily 3 tasks — the only problem is that the “Show Today’s Note” shortcut doesn’t work when run.

It says “Could not run Unknown Action, requires … to be installed”. Those … are two chinese symbols.

I’m guessing it’s because WatchOS shortcuts behaves slightly differently and is more limited, but it’d be great if there’s a workaround for this.

If not, i’ll probably be fine as I plan my day on my phone(where it works) and on the watch app i can see the most recent note.

Thanks

Great to hear you’re enjoying WatchOS 26 and the new Notes app! It’s exciting that formatting and hyperlink navigation are fully functional. The shortcut issue is likely due to WatchOS’s limitations compared to iOS, as you guessed. A possible workaround could be creating a custom shortcut on the phone that syncs with the Watch app or using a third-party app that supports note shortcuts. Still, being able to view your latest note on the watch is already very handy!
