• Fixes issues that were impacting battery performance
• Resolves an issue that prevented a managed iPhone from syncing iOS Calendar events to Apple Watch
• Addresses an issue that could prevent location information from properly updating

• Addresses an issue that could cause instability when using a Live Photo as a watch face
• Resolves an issue that allows the sensors to stay on indefinitely when using Siri to measure heart rate

WatchOS 2.0.1 also includes a bunch of bug fixes as well as support for new emoji’s which have also been made available today via iOS 9.1 and 10.11.1 El Capitan.
