The update will also be bringing a number of other improvements.

The full changelog includes:

• Built-in sleep tracking with iPhone integration
• New workout types including Dance, Core Training, Functional Strength Training, and Cool Down
• Activity app renamed Fitness
• Apple Maps now contains cycling routes in select cities
• Two new watch faces including a new Chronograph face with a tachometer and an XL face
• Watch face sharing between Apple Watches
• Multiple complications per app for third-party apps
• Hand wash detection and countdown timers

The update will become available to developers today and will enter public beta in July.
