A new app for the Apple Watch will help you get a better overall view of your health and fitness levels. The new Vitals app synthesizes details from your Health and Fitness data. During the keynote at its Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) on Monday, Apple announced new features coming to watchOS 11. 

In addition to the new Vitals app, the Activity app is getting new abilities like Training Load that measures the intensity and duration of your workout to see how its impacting you over time. Using data like heart rate and pace, along with your personal details like age and weight, the app will determine a rating for each workout from one (easy) to ten (all out). In a post workout summary, you can see if you're training above your average or below it.  

Using your iPhone, you can set more personalization and customizations, like adjusting your goals for the day of the week. You can even set rest days and hang on to your streaks. 

If you like the Photos watch face, there's good news here too. Machine learning models will now help you find the best photos to feature and will automatically crop and frame it for you. 

This story is developing, please refresh for more updates.
