In detail, Wear OS version 2.1 is rolling out to the Android Wear compatible devices. The significant change that has been added is the new gesture support that allows you to navigate the OS. A swipe on the top will allow you to access quick settings, while bottom to up gesture will pop the notifications for you.

The update is rolling out to all the Android Wear OS compatible watches. Make sure to check for the update by heading to Settings > System > About > System Updates. Also, if you didn’t receive the update by performing th above steps, then we suggest you wait for some time.
