Personally, I'm voting cringeworthy based on the Keynote "demo" clip. In reality it will likely be even worse. I just hope it doesn't replace Voice Feedback, which is a useful, "just the facts, ma'am," kind of feature.

Here is a new feature:
"Apple Watch now supports Live Translation in Messages with Apple Intelligence, allowing incoming texts to be automatically translated into a user’s preferred language, right on their wrist."

That seems convenient for those occasions when you
want to receive messages from someone who doesn't
know your language.

Thanks,

Well, it's only Workout Buddy that I find cringeworthy, the other features sound great, including the Notes app on Watch. Next up, Journal? (Could work well with dictation.)

I'd also like to see separate Sounds & Haptics settings for the workout app that would override the default settings whenever you are running a workout.
