Apple Watch Series 6 have a water resistance rating of 50 meters under ISO standard 22810:2010. This means that they may be used for shallow-water activities like swimming in a pool or ocean. However, they should not be used for scuba diving, waterskiing, or other activities involving high-velocity water or submersion below shallow depth. Apple also redesigned the Home App in watchOS 8. The app now offers “more convenient access to accessories and scenes needed in a particular moment, and the ability to control accessories by room,” said Apple.

The Series 6 is water-resistant to 165 feet. Apple says it's safe for shallow water activities like swimming (in a pool or in the ocean). You can also wear it in the shower and hot tub. You shouldn't, however, wear it while scuba diving, waterskiing, or "other activities involving high-velocity water or submersion below shallow depth," Apple says. Setup and Interface The Series 6 is light and comfortable on my wrist, even when I wear it to bed.
