JAKARTA - Apple has finally released Apple Watch 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 series promised as AppleWatch with the most advanced chips Apple has.

With these two latest Apple Watch series, there are features where users can operate without touching the screen. This feature is called Double Tap.

Through this latest series, Apple added a gesture feature to control Apple Watch by simply tapping the thumb and index finger twice simultaneously.

This finger gesture is able to answer calls, open notifications, play and give pauses when turning on music, and various other advantages.

Quoted from Engadget, Apple COO Jeff Williams believes that this feature is very useful when users have difficulty using both hands. This feature is also believed to work quickly because it uses a faster Neural Engine S9 SiP.

According to Apple's official explanation, Neural Engine has an algorithm that can detect small movements on the wrist and changes in blood flow when the index finger and thumb are knocked twice.

Therefore, Double Tap is considered a satisfying feature and makes it easier so far, especially in the Apple Watch Ultra 2.Double Tap series, which is also fairly practical in its use according to a review of dariengadget.

While Series 9 and Watch Ultra 2 may not look like a massive upgrade at first sight, I feel that features enabled by S9 SiP, such as Siri on devices and Double Tap, will make significant changes in the long term, said Cherlynn Low, Deputy Editorendgadget.

Although the launch of the latest Apple Watch series has a positive reaction, it needs to be used with longer time to ensure the shortcomings and advantages of the Double Tap feature.
