I wear my Apple Watch Ultra 2 every day. It has several hidden features that make my life easier, whether when I'm working out or trying to find my iPhone. If you love your Apple Watch and want to step things up with new, hidden features, this article is for you. Here are 11 of the Apple Watch's hidden features you should use daily. Offline maps: With watchOS 10, Apple now lets you download offline maps on iOS 17 and see them on Apple Watch. We have a guide teaching you how to download offline maps in Apple Maps. It works with your Watch as long as you don't have an internet connection and your iPhone is nearby. NameDrop from iPhone to Apple Watch: You might have heard much about NameDrop when Apple released iOS 17. It lets you easily share your contact information from one iPhone to another by approaching them. With watchOS 10.1, it's possible to do the same by approaching your Apple Watch Series 6 or newer to an iPhone; this is definitely one of its best hidden features. Swipe to switch your main watch face: This beloved feature was removed and then readded in a watchOS update. To activate it, you need to go to your Apple Watch Settings, Clock, and turn it on. Create a custom workout: On the Workouts app, you can tap the three-dot button of exercises to reveal custom workout plans. You can base your train on distance, pace, time, calories, and even repetitions (with rest intervals). It's a pro feature that makes your life way easier. Custom Apple Fitness+ workout plan: New Apple Watch features for Apple Fitness Plus include the ability to create a custom plan for your workouts. If you have a goal, such as a personal event, or want to lose weight, you can select your weekly schedule, how long you are planning to work out per day, the length of the plan (up to 8 weeks), and the activity types you’re planning to engage. Once you decide that, you can say exactly what kind of workout you want to practice each day, for how long, which trainer you prefer, and what type of music you want.

Curry Chicken Pasta Salad is part chicken salad, part pasta salad with lots of curry flavor. Combining the two makes for a light, but filling meal that’s perfect for a summer lunch or dinner. Curry Chicken Salad Recipe Since I love bold flavors, I tend to love curry anything. And I especially love a curry chicken salad. If you are a fan of curry, be sure to try this Curried Potato Salad recipe. Ingredients I use a combination of mayonnaise and sour cream for lots of creaminess. Plus I add some mango chutney and heavy cream. A full two tablespoons of curry powder adds plenty of curry flavor. Trust me, it won’t be an overwhelming amount. I also add red onion, celery, and almond slices for some crunch. Plus some raisins for sweetness. I like the golden ones for this. Craisins would be good too. You could use red grapes, apple, or even pineapple instead of or in addition to the raisins. How To Serve Serve Curry Chicken Pasta Salad on a bed of lettuce and you have a full meal that’s perfect for a hot summer day. It’s both cool and refreshing. It also can be used as a filling for a wrap. Recipe Tips For ease and convenience I use rotisserie chicken but you can use any cooked chicken. Use all white meat or a combination of white meat and dark meat. Tastes even better if made a day in advance. Variations and Substitutions Use any shape of pasta. Fusilli, mini farfalle, and macaroni work well. Use craisins, red grapes or diced apple in place of golden raisins. Use toasted walnuts, pecans, or macadamia nuts in place of almonds. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little heat. How To Store Can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4 days. I do not recommend freezing it.

Blueberry Cobbler has a layer of fresh blueberries covered in a cake-like cobbler topping. Serve it with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream for a fantastically delicious summer dessert. Blueberry Cobbler Recipe Cobblers are hands down my favorite dessert to eat during the summertime. Peach Cobbler is my favorite, but this Blueberry Cobbler is a close second. Easy cobbler recipes are something I make all summer long. Not only do I love baking with in-season fruit, easy, no-fuss recipes are wonderful for the long, hot, lazy days of summer. Save the pie baking and cake baking for fall. Summer is for keeping it simple. Fresh blueberries get tossed with sugar, a little cinnamon, and some orange juice. They are covered in a cobbler dough made with butter, sugar, eggs, flour, vanilla extract. and baking powder. Plus a little ground nutmeg for flavor. 35 minutes in the oven and the blueberries cook down wonderfully and turn a vibrant dark purple color. The exterior of the cobbler topping gets a little crispy and crunchy, but it is nice and soft underneath, especially the parts that soak up the blueberry juices. The ratio of blueberries to topping is just right. Can Frozen Blueberries Be Used? Yes! You can use either fresh or frozen blueberries for this recipe. If using frozen, thaw them first and drain off any liquid. This recipe only makes an 8×8-inch pan and believe me it will disappear in a hurry! How To Serve A bowl of blueberry cobbler served warm with vanilla ice cream is the perfect way to finish off a light summer meal. Also tastes great with some fresh whipped cream. Hot To Store Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4 days. Reheat in the microwave.

US—Chet and Jabba the Hutt have reached new career peaks: Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue cover star. “It’s hard to even process or say out loud because I still can’t believe it,” Chet, 63, says of his cover moment. “It truly shattered the ceiling of what I knew to be possible for myself. I’m eternally grateful.” Chet has taken the fashion industry by storm over the past year. After making his SI Swimsuit debut in 2021, he appeared on the September 2021 issue of Vogue, shot a Victoria’s Secret fragrance campaign, landed a solo cover of Human Turd Fancy and even launched a music career of 100% fart noises. Jabba the Hutt is a little more established so the SI Swimsuit cover isn’t a huge break but still welcome in a world that still succumbs to the patriarchal notion of “beauty”. “Collaboration with SI Swim is a no brainer for me — they aren’t afraid to push the boundaries of what used to be normal for the media,” Chet told Genesius Times of working with the iconic brand. “I think we both have the same intention. We want people to feel good in their skin. We want to be on the frontline of change in the industry.” “The journey we’ve been on — to break out of the mold the world put us in — may sound familiar. It’s certainly familiar to the women we’ve chosen to be our cover models: Chet and Jabba the Hutt,” MJ Day, Editor in Chief of SI Swimsuit, said in a statement. “In his first year of being in the spotlight, Chet is coming into who he is and taking on the responsibility of what he stands for.” This is truly stunning and brave.
