Several months ago the Wristcam Apple Watch camera accessory band was released. Yesterday, a significant update was released that adds live video messaging support so you can communicate with family and friends right from your watch.

The Wristcam was designed by early Apple Watch engineers and the few test shots that I have been able to capture have been impressive. The new Live Messenger functionality is something entirely new for the Apple Watch so I recommend you watch the How-To video as you consider the Wristcam band.

The company also recently launched Siri shortcuts so you can quickly and easily capture content by speaking to your Apple Watch. There is also now a complication for the watch face so you can easily launch the Wristcam app and start capturing the world around you from your wrist.
