 Are You ready for 25 of the best-hidden apple watch tips and tricks this little guy is packed with a ton of features you probably had no idea existed?

1. VIBRATION:

If you head into the settings of your watch and then scroll right down until you see the clock once in there you scroll down again and you will see taptic time when you toggle this on this is what allows you to tell the time with freaking vibration so now if your watch is on silent mode and you want to tell the time just place your two fingers down. That is how you tell the time with a vibration. 

2. TELL THE TIME:

If you're in the cinema watching a movie and want to discreetly tell the time you can just scroll the crown to adjust the brightness check the time and scroll it back down pretty nifty. 

3. CLOCK SETTING:

Another really useful feature that's quite hidden is also found back inside the clock settings with this feature you can actually set your clock forward by a few minutes so if you're someone that is regularly late this might be a good idea.

4. UPDATE DATE AND TIME:

check out and the other cool thing is it only updates the time on your watch and doesn't affect the time on your phone now that's handy okay so the latest update has a bunch of cool customization options and we all know how long it can take to update our watch so if you stick around for the end I'll show you how to take an update from hours to just minutes but check this out with the new updates we get a bunch of really cool new watch faces and aside from infographic. 

5. DIAL STYLE:

you can change the style the dial and even the color and then still add a bunch of complications in each corner so whether you wanted to be a timer walkie-talkie or the weather basically you get a lot of customization options.

6. ANIMATION DESIGN:

Look at how cool that looks also keep your eye on other watch faces some of them have subtle animations then this one is a total must for me if you head back to the settings and scroll down to accessibility within here you will see the option for.

7. TEXT SIZE :

Text size once you tap on that you can up the text size and guys these apple watches can get really small so up in the text size really helps and you can also toggle on the bold text also if you're new to your watch

8. BUBBLE MENU TO LIST MENU:

Turning your bubble menu into a list menu that way you can easily see what each app actually is but now let's get into some workout action so with the new apple watch update

9. WORKOUT MOOD:

We also get a brand new workout mode and that is multi-sport mode so if you enjoy triathlons I don't know how this mode is for you what's so cool is there are different variations of triathlon or you can just create your own and when you guys begin a workout and scroll down you will see a bunch of metrics like your heart rate distance calories elevation heart rate zones and even activity rings plus these all change based on your specific workouts.

10. FITNESS APP:

Don't forget you can check out all those metrics within the fitness app on your phone but get this to make sure your metrics are always correct and super accurate within settings you can scroll down to workouts and in here toggle on auto pause because now what happens is if you're busy running and stop at a stop street, for example, it'll automatically pause and stop measuring your metrics until you go again or if you're doing a different type of workout like weights, for example, you can toggle on the press to pause and now once your exercise begins anytime you want to take a one two three minutes. breather you name it you can just push the crown and the button in together at the same time and it'll pull your workout until you're ready to go again.

11. CLINCHING AND PINCHING CONTROL (ASSERTIVE TOUCH:):

You can control your entire watch by clinching and pinching that is right guys you might not believe me but if you get back into settings under accessibility and toggle on assistive touch you now basically have super powers when it comes to your apple watch if you double clench it opens up the main menu a single clench is to accept and then pinching is to navigate.

There's also this other feature which is a pointer and once you've selected that as you rotate your wrist the pointer moves around and then when you're ready to select an app just hold the pointer there. 

This is pretty insane it's definitely something you guys gotta try out but as always apple takes it a step further with this new feature so if you don't want all those assistive touch functions you can just go back into settings once again and toggle on only 

12. QUICK ACTION:

This is not about navigating your entire watch but it's just about quick things like answering the phone or snoozing an alarm love it and the crazy thing is this even works with pictures. 

13. ACCESSIBILITY: 

I have gotta hand it to apple because they are literally the best when it comes to accessibility for everyone so get this on average in us alone. 

14. MEDICATION REMINDERS :

 More than four billion prescriptions for medication are dispensed within a year so with so many prescriptions being filled out it's no wonder apple came out with this genius feature and that is medication reminders I mean so simple but so brilliant you do just need to make sure you add your medication via your phone so you can either take a picture of it or add it in manually and then when it's time to take your medicine your watch will remind you.

15. SLEEP APP / SLEEP METRICS:

Sleep app not many people know that you can set an alarm on your watch instead of your phone so your watch actually wakes you up in the morning with subtle vibrations and a nice little gentle sound instead of your phone.

 Apple finally added much better sleep metrics like your average ramp sleep core sleep and deep sleep so now you'll be able to see why on some days you feel a little bit more tired.

16. MIRRORING:

You can now control your entire watch using your iPhone so here's how the feature works on your iPhone under accessibility you will see the brand new feature that says apple watch mirroring you do need to be on ios 16 but once you toggle this on within a couple of seconds it starts mirroring your watch and you can now navigate.  using your phone so I personally use this to edit my watch faces and try out different colors and different complications because it is so much easier editing on my phone than on my watch but what would you guys use this for while we're on the topic of navigation.

17. RECENT APP:

Did you guys know if you double click the crown button it'll open your most recently used app and then if you want to return to the previous app and just double click again and you're back? 

18. SHAZAM APP / SIRI APP:

The Shazam app is installed then open it up when you want to identify a song tap that big blue button and using the microphone built-in on your watch it'll find the song and get this you can even play back the song on your watch.

You can just ask Siri what's the song and in a couple of seconds she'll answer by the way this is a great song [Music] but Siri can do so much more than just looking for songs firstly she got a slightly updated look but if you didn't know you can just click and hold down on the crown to activate Siri then ask her anything you want and you can't just lift up your wrist and instantly speak with her like when's my meeting with James bond you're not cool hails you don't know James bond but Sirius the best feature by far has got to be that she can translate and speak in 21 different languages like check this out how do you say hello how are you in Spanish.in Spanish hello how are you I mean she's extremely accurate and she also kind of sounds like a real person on top of all those crazy cool features.

19. SOCIAL MEDIA APPS :

There is still so much more you can do with your watch thanks to the app store because on here you can search for apps like chirp which is basically twittered for the apple watch so not only can you read a bunch of tweets but you can even retweet them or heart them from your watch yes there is even an app that lets you view Instagram on your apple watch.

20. KEYBOARD :

Apple watches keyboard but what's really hidden is if you swipe up there's a scribble keyboard this is so much easier and faster to use especially if you can't touch those tiny keys. If you tap on any word and scroll with the crown as you can see there are a bunch of other options relating to that work but then this brilliant feature came along 

21. NOTIFICATION:

If you don't want to use that tiny keyboard anytime you tap on a text bar you get this notification on your iPhone which allows you to type in using your phone but the keyboard has another great hidden feature and that's automatic dictation and punctuation so now she can do things like full stops or question marks and it's super simple.

22. MIC ICON :

Click the mic icon and now you can ask things like are you subscribed if not I think you should I don't know about you guys but I love this feature you do just need to make sure it's turned on so again within settings under general if you scroll down you will see the option that says dictation and once in here you can just toggle on order punctuation.

23. CALCULATOR APP:

If I want to try and calculate someone's tip have you ever noticed that tip button if you just tap on it not only can you change the percentage of the tip but you can also decide between how many people you're splitting the tip this is so genius but such an easy thing to miss on the calculator. 

24. RED DOT:

I bet 99 percent of you had no idea you could even get rid of this notification dot if you go into settings and open up notifications front and center just toggle off the notification indicator and now you will never see that little kind of annoying red dot. The red dot on your home screen yeah then if you're someone who likes to be reminded of certain things like drinking water. 

25. CHIMES:

This is a cool hidden feature because within settings once again under accessibility if you scroll down you will see this feature called Chimes. chimes and once you tap on that you can decide whether you want chimes or not and then also how often you want the chime to happen so when it does chime you'll know it's time to drink some water.

Now to drop that update time from hours to just minutes all you're gonna do is turn off your Bluetooth bam amazingly it is that simple because what this does is it forces your watch to update via wi-fi and not Bluetooth so once you've turned it off and open the apple watch app just click cancel and your update will happen in minutes.
