[LOOK] Animated Snoopy Watch Faces Arrive in Latest watchOS 10 Beta

The highly-anticipated watchOS 10 update brings a delightful surprise for fans of the iconic "Peanuts" comic strip. Among a slew of new exciting features, Apple previewed two captivating watch faces featuring the beloved characters Snoopy and Woodstock back in June.

Recently, Apple Insider reported that it was discovered that the "Peanut" duo comes to life with interactive animations, making time-telling an endearing and entertaining experience.

A Sneak Peek into watchOS 10 Beta

The latest beta version of watchOS 10, the next major update to Apple's powerful smartwatch operating system, offers an exclusive look at the exciting additions.

The animated watch faces are undoubtedly the most eye-catching among the plethora of new features.

While the general launch of watchOS 10 is slated for September or October, the lucky developers can now enjoy Snoopy and Woodstock's charming presence on their wrists.

Snoopy and Palette

The first of the two new watch faces is called "Palette." Apple describes it as a mesmerizing display of time depicted through distinct overlapping layers of vibrant colors.

As time changes, the colors on the display seamlessly shift, creating a dynamic and artistic representation of the passing hours.

Users have the flexibility to customize the Palette face with various gradient patterns, and up to four complications can be added to the corners, providing quick access to essential information.

The second and undoubtedly the star attraction is the "Snoopy" watch face, featuring the lovable beagle from Charles Schulz's iconic comic strip, "Peanuts," alongside his loyal friend Woodstock.

But this is not your ordinary cartoon illustration; as previously mentioned, Snoopy and Woodstock are brought to life with delightful animations interacting with the watch hands.

Dynamic Animations and More Surprises

Every time you raise your wrist, 9to5Mac tells us that the Snoopy watch face presents a different animation, adding an element of surprise and excitement.

For those fortunate enough to own an Apple Watch model with an Always-on display, a charming detail awaits. When the display is dimmed, Snoopy and Woodstock are peacefully snoozing, adding a touch of whimsy to your watch when it's not in use.

Apple's attention to detail is evident in the Snoopy watch face's theme, aptly named "Sunday Surprise." A source close to the Apple Watch team claims that the watch face shows a black and white background on weekdays but switches to a colored background on Sundays.

Looking Ahead: General Launch

The debut of these watch faces in the watchOS 10 beta has generated immense excitement among Apple Watch enthusiasts.

But when can the wider Apple Watch community expect to get their hands on these delightful faces? Apple has confirmed that the official release of watchOS 10 is scheduled for September or October.
