watchOS and Apple Watch Apps

Here is my setup:

I have an iPhone 15 Pro, Airpods pro 2, and Apple Watch 7.

When I am running on the treadmill with my airpods in (and noise cancelation on), I try to ask Siri to tell me my pulse or heart rate. Unfortunately, since the airpods are connected to the phone, the phone answers that it can't do that Of course I can ask on the watch using Siri, but I can't hear the watch since I have the airpods in with noise reduction on because the treadmill and my pounding feet are too loud to bare with out noise reduction and trying to listen to a podcast.

Hi, have just got the new Apple Watch Ultra and have one main question.

Is there a way to turn off the navigation sounds when using voiceover?

I can customise these on my iPhone, so when I swipe I don't always get that clunking sound when encountering each item as I swipe.

Ideally I just want Voiceover to speak, with no other sounds as I navigate.

Is this possible and if so how?

Many thanks. Stu.

Hi,
I turned off the headphone notifications and limits on the iPhone and apple watch, because I'm not a baby, and I can decide for myself how I listen to my audio. But that's neither here nor there, lol. Despite turning off the warnings, limits, etc., I'm still getting alerts on my apple watch, "you've gone over your headphone limit.” , blah, blah blah! I don't care! These notifications are annoying, how can I get rid of them completely? I don't need my devices managing how I listen.

Hi everyone. I hope you're all safe and well. I have a small question. Can you decide what voice-over sounds on the apple watch? I'm refering to the clicking when you swipe etc. they're really driving me crazy. Thank you all so much for any help

I just found out it is possible to use same gesture as on iPhone to mute speech on the apple watch. I could never get it to work. I have a series 4 small model but quite small fingers so they do fit on the screen. I also have latest os 7.3 installed. Any help very appreciated.

Hello gang,
I was wondering if there was a way to toggle the watch screen curtain on and off,
If it were possible, how do i do it
I would really like to know how to do this on my apple watch and any help would be appreciated,
Thanks,
Arvind

Hi,
I have an Apple Watch.
Currently, I have it hiding in the cupboard because I am afraid to use it due to Apple's new emergency contact feature with holding down - I forget which button - so I am worried about how I will turn it off or would I get the emergency number by accident and call 9-1-1 without meaning to, not be able to hear the call cuz I'm profoundly deaf, then have an ambulance come because I couldn't explain the call was just an accident and not to send help. How do I disable this feature that I will never never never want to use by mistake?

I am wanting to turn on pass code for my apple watch. I have done this in the past with no problem. Now when I go to type in a new pass code I get no feedback when trying to type in a new code. I am not sure if the number I touched was entered or not. How do I enable touch type typing on my apple watch. That is when I slide or move to a number and lift my finger I get feedback that I had typed that one digit.

I am trying to use Uber on the Apple Watch Series 5 Cellular. I have my Apple Card set as the default payment method for everything on the watch as well as in the Uber app on my phone. However, Uber on the watch seems to think that I need to use Uber Cash and I get messages about insufficient funds. I have even gone as far as going into the Watch app on the phone and ensuring that the default method is Apple Card and it is still not working. Does anyone know how to fix this if this can be fixed? Thanks in advance for the help.

I have an Apple Watch that is running the latest version on watch OS.
I am trying to download a watch only app on the watch in the App Store. It äays double click to pay, but doing so does not lead to anything. The wifi is around.
How ccan I download apps?

This morning when my watch had updated to Watch 7.2, Voiceover could review notification the update had completed and the new features of the update, but there was no OK button or other way of exiting this screen and returning to the watch face. Pressing the crown or side button did nothing. I unpaired my iPhone and attempted to reinstall using a backup with an older Apple watch operating system, but it downloaded the latest one by default and the issue persists. Is there a way to exit the update completed screen or do I have to wait until Apple releases an update to fix the issue?

I am trying to help a good friend of mine pair his apple watch with his new phone. He doesn't have his old phone any more. I followed the directions on the apple watch web site, and here's where I run into trouble. When going to settings>general>reset, I double-tap erase all content and settings. There is a warning that asks if I'm sure I want to do this, and voiceover will not find the button to say yes. How do I work around this? The watch is running Watch OS 9.3. I also tried the same thing on my watch, running 9.4 and I have the same problem.

I use to have music on my watch. I deleted the music to replace with the new stuff. There is no lack of spaceis wifi and bluetooth. How can I fix this?
Edit: it says waiting but äeems to notice when I remove my watch from it's charger.

I have hand-off turned on in both my phone, which is an iPhone se2 with the latest update, and my apple watch 7 series, with the latest update. However, I tried transferring a call from my Apple Watch to my phone, which are both under the same apple ID, and I was not seeing my watch on the app switcher for double tapping on to take the call from the watch to my phone. What am I missing?

Hi all. Wondering if anyone can make any sense of what has happened to the activity rings since watch OS 10. It used to be that you could look at your stand activity and see which hours you had achieved your stand minute on. Now, all I see our figures that make absolutely no sense. Yes, I could probably look at this on my Health app on the phone, but what's the point in having it on the watch if you can't utilise it? Has anyone been able to make any sense of this? I have literally just upgraded to watch OS 10.1.1, so I'm hoping that it was a bug that they've now fixed.

I have worked all the time during a week. I am trying to update my watch and I counted 27 times of how much I have tried (I ccounted) and I cannot do it. It downloads a bit, sometimes most of it, but then it says it failed to verify the update and I have wifi and everything and now I am working on time 28.

Hello all,
I have a series 3 watch and I am not able to update it to the latest software. It keeps telling me I do not have enough space. It says I need 3.1 gigabytes free to do the update. Even if I delete all my apps and my health data, there is no way for me to get enough space. Is anyone else seeing this? I have seen a couple other people tweet about it.

Does anyone make use of the information that the vitals app provides? I'd love how to know how to interpret it with ease but I keep on finding myself getting confused. I think for the sided Community there is a visual representation whereas we get the percentages above or below and I find myself not being able to put the information to proper use. Does anyone feel the same way? Any tips to Moore quickly making use of this information.

I updated my watch this morning and found no problems. Everything is working as it should.

Am very new in using Apple watch, i got apple watch SE, and need to ask some questions:
1- can i type using touch typing instead of The original way of double tapping a letter or number?
2- i put a pass code, and each time, i need to open my watch i must type the pass code, is there a way to avoid this?
THis is very annoying really
