According to a Twitter user who goes by the name @analyst941, Apple will introduce a design overhaul with watchOS 10. It is said to come with a redesigned home screen with an icon layout similar to iOS. This would allow users to create folders and use, move, and act more easily. The tipster has also posted renders suggesting the redesigned home screen layout. It could feature a grid of three apps in a row.
