    Extra feature: switching on the torch while in theater mode does it with red light which can be very helpful in dark surroundings
  • @jimhoff1488
    the quick find my iPhone button....if you hold it down instead of pressing, it will add a flashing light to the regular sound
  • @dillardtrisha
    Love the ā€˜waterā€™ lock feature, my grandkids are always changing my watch. Thank you
  • @CooperF
    4:27 Swiping to type is the easiest way for me to type on the Apple Watch screen. I recommend it if you havenā€™t yet tried it.
  • @toranzeisig4874
    Did you know (on my Apple Watch anyway), that if you power off your Apple Watch, you can still check the time by tapping the crown. It'll take a second, but there's the time.
  • @Steve21945
    I always used to accidentally select different watch faces so Iā€™m glad that you canā€™t accidentally do it anymore, although it is good to be able to toggle that feature
  • @KienTran
    One thing about Keyboard vs Scribble pad. I find that it's actually easier to use swipe on the Watch keyboard over the scribble pad. You don't need to press individual letters on the keyboard. It's faster and take better advantage of the auto correct.
  • @hovelad
    As always despite considering myself an experienced Apple user there are a few things here I didn't know!
  • @Dronerangerspro
    Glad I watched till the end because that water lick is the one I needed most! Great stuff as always.
  • As someone who also has young twins and an Apple Watch, this last tip is gold. Thank you.
  • @MobileAddict
    Thanks, I have learned a few things ! Btw how do you screen record your Apple Watch ? (Like you did in your video)
  • Congratulations on twins! Thank you for all the content you create, it is awesome and extremely helpful! Blessings from Texas!
  • @Nylgk
    Thank you, great video as usual and very informative. ā€œKeep apps open longerā€ was a helpful feature I wasnā€™t aware of, so thank you for that. šŸ‘šŸ¼
  • @kingpuppet5881
    Thank you so much for this amazing video. I had no idea my Apple Watch Ultra could do these things. Always look forward to your new videos.
  • Thank you so much - the inability to swipe between faces really annoyed me. I watched this just in case it had been sorted as Iā€™d heard a rumour it had. I had tried to work out how to no avail. Iā€™m now happily swiping between faces again šŸ˜€
  • Great Video: I did not know about the Time in Daylight function. I will start monitoring that. Using the water lock mode to disable the screen is great! Is there something similar for the iPhone?
  • @GT-ho6co
    Apologies for laughing out loud at the thought of kids setting an alarm in middle of night šŸ˜‚ Using the water lock is a creative way to workaround this. Great video as always šŸ‘šŸ¼
  • @thomaslomax8769
    Thank you ,one thing that I think you should add is which model your tips work as some of them donā€™t work on older models.
  • @Tigers.i
    One tip I recommend is enabling assistive touch in accessibility. Then toggle on Hand gestures, which allow you to turn on Quick Actions (when assistive touch is enabled). These are handy single hand gestures you can use to dismiss notifications, pause music, or sleep the display all by pinching your fingers or clenching your palm. They even work in water proof mode for the times you donā€™t want the screen touches enabled
