"Add a friend" screen comes with a known surprise message

In the midst of the greatest malware invasion in their iOS App Store, Apple still makes the time to bring on the funny.

This time, they've rickrolled their watchOS customers on the "Use Digital Touch" page, published on their support website.

If you take a closer look at the last watch face at the bottom and read the contacts clockwise, you will get the verse used as the title of Rick Astley's most famous song and used by many as a booby trap hidden behind cleverly disguised web links.

The most important thing here is that Apple has managed to keep up the minimalist and simple touch they're best known for, with a zen-like approach characteristic to Jonathan Ive, their Chief Design Officer.

Apple is known for rickrolling their users and developers, with the most prominent case being the iOS 6.0 changelog, where Apple rickrolled developers with the following line: "As of iOS 6, embedded YouTube URLs in the form of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0 will no longer work."

Even though they're most probably knee-deep in their XcodeGhost war, managing to still keep their funny side alive means that all is not lost because, as we all know, once you go blue, you don't know what to do.
