Apple Watch Bug Could Allow People To Eavesdrop On iPhones

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Important information for people who wear an Apple Watch. The company says it deactivated its Walkie Talkie feature after it found out people could use it to eavesdrop on iPhones.

A similar bug back in January let people use the Facetime app to listen in on iPhone conversations.

The company says it will reactivate the watch's walkie-talkie after it finds a fix for the glitch.
