New operating system watchOS 5 brought on Apple Watch some very nice improvements, including the ability to browse websites. This is enabled by WebKit, but unfortunately only available for Apple Watch Series 3 and Series 4. The use of WebKit is quite clear – to enable it on Apple Watch open attached links in Messages or Mail. This allows us to browse various websites without having to take our phone out of our pocket. iPhone, iPad or turn on Mac. Of course, it's not a full-fledged web browsing experience just because of the size of the display, but for short and quick browsing in your free time, the watch display will definitely be enough. What's more, you can use it to "google" or scroll through Instagram without any problems.

In the same way, you can of course also create an email to which you will send your favorite links. Then all you have to do is watch it open the application, to which you send links, find the appropriate thread and voilà, surfing the internet at Apple Watch can po selecting the appropriate link start.
Gallery
The watch has no problem with both classic websites and more complex websites. You can easily read articles from, for example, on them Letem svetem Applem also with the option to view the gallery, but also the web version of Instagram with the option to play Stories. If you then forward a link to Google in your Mail or Messages, for example, you can search through it without any problem using dictation. Thanks to Force Touch, you can also go back between pages. Unfortunately, this option is not available everywhere, and some longer articles may not load in their entirety, but otherwise WebKit works really well.
