Apple is giving a demo of the Apple Watch right now, and were seeing a whole slew of new custom UI interactions to control such a small-screened device. From a hardware perspective the most notable elements are an iPhone-like touch screen and the so-called digital crown — a dial on the right side of the device that you can spin and push like a button. The touch screen isnt just a standard touchscreen, either — it recognizes a standard press or swipe, but it also has a feature known as force touch. Since the screen can recognize how much force youre putting behind an interaction with the watch, the force touch is similar to a right click, it brings up more options, like customizing the watch face.
