There have already been some details about the upcoming Apple Watch, but an iPhone app has settings for the Apple Watch that gives clues about how the smartwatch will work. The app known as the “Companion” app for iPhone will apparently let watch owners manage settings for apps connected to the iPhone.

The Apple Watch is set to debut this spring and will mark Apple’s entry into the wearable tech market. Apple also markets the upcoming smartwatch as a device that can act as both a smartwatch as well as a health and fitness tracker. One of the leaks reveals that you can customize a monogram clock face. You can also track various stocks by watching activities on the clock face. Since there is no keyboard on the watch, you will respond to messages with your voice. You can also set default text replies and choose not to receive text alerts from anyone or just specific people.

A VoiceOver feature will speak any text that appears on the screen and you’ll be able to zoom in on the screen by double-tapping. For security purposes, you set up a four-number passcode that can be used for Apple Pay. One of the best features for fitness lovers is a specific feature that will remind you how long you’ve been sitting, how much activity you accomplish over a period of time, and if you’re sticking to your exercise goals.

If this leak is accurate, the app will most likely change before the release of the smartwatch. Be sure to keep up with our coverage of the Apple Watch as we receive details.
