Apple WatchOS 4.1 GM release notes leaked

Apple already has its WatchOS 4.1 in beta for developers. The beta versions aim is to eliminate the bugs, issues as well as add new features if required. But a developer named Guilherme Rambo has now got his hands on the release notes of the WatchOS 4.1 GM version.
For those unaware, the 'GM' or Golden Master versions of the OS are the final versions that have gone through internal tests and are ready to be shipped to all the users.

The alleged release note obtained by Rambo talks about some of the much speculated features of the WatchOS. Some of these include the arrival of Apple Music streaming, new Radio app, and improved Siri voice assistant among others. Unfortunately, the release note does not mention anything about Apple Pay Cash.

Apple Pay Cash was first seen with iOS 11 during the WWDC 2017. The feature works with the iMessage app and lets users send money simply by using text messages to one another. It is already present in iOS 11.1 beta and is being tested internally by Apple corporate and retail employees in the US.

Apple Pay Cash missing from the watchOS 4.1 GM release note raises some confusion among users. The company, on its dedicated Apple Pay page, clearly says that Apple Pay Cash is coming to Apple Watch. So the only possible explanation can be that users might have to wait for other future watchOS updates to get the feature.

The release note, however, suggests the inclusion of GymKit. With this users will be able to sync the data with treadmills, elliptical, stair steppers, and indoor bikes.

In the release note it has been also mentioned that the OS version will resolve an issue that caused haptics to not be delivered for silent alarms, where Sunrise/Sunset complication would sometimes not appear and issue that prevented Apple Watch (1st generation) from charging for users.
