If you install updates regularly, you probably already saw a yellow pear on your phone and computer screens. This is our new Pyrus icon.
We’re often asked: «What is Pyrus?» We always answer that it’s a universal platform for business process automation. Beyond that, «pyrus» is Latin word that refers to the genus of the pear tree.
Pyrus is now the first productivity platform to integrate with Android Wear. That means you can Get Things Done (#GTD) anywhere and everywhere from your new smartwatch.
You can respond to, approve, reject, or complete a pending task right from your wrist. New tasks that arrive to your Pyrus inbox show up instantly on your LG G Watch or Samsung Gear Live as notifications. You can view the full content of a task on your watch and take action immediately. If the task needs a response or approval, you can do so right on the watch interface. Or if you prefer to deal with the task later, just swipe it away.

Enough of those users noticed the bug and brought it to Apple’s attention. Presumably, Apple fixes thousands of minor bugs in between releases, yet this one made it to the main release summary, prominently featured as a major fix.
