RE: Questions about apple watch and swimming.
To my knowledge there is no case you can use which makes the watch waterproof while you wear it on your wrist. You can remove waterlock by pressing and holding the crown but keep in mind that if the watch is wet and your hands are wet, touch gestures can be very unreliable. But you could at that point invoke Siri and ask for the time and maybe a double tap would trigger haptic feedback pretty reliably, haven’t really tested that because if I do say a 1000 meter pool swim and I know when I started, then I don’t need to know the time because I know roughly it takes me 32 minutes give or take a bit for the 40 laps which make up 1000 meters.

Re: Apple Watch 10 strap sizes question?
Thank you to all who replied to my post about watch bands for my new Apple Watch.I have placed an order for the 46MM model GPS only. It should be with me on Friday.As I am trading in my 41MM series 7 I have its Sport loop which new is worth £49 that I would happily let go free to a good home.All I would require is for the recipient to pay postage from here in the UK.I would rather someone make use of it if that is at all possible.Malcolm ParfittOn 15 Sep 2024, at 8:39 pm, Malcolm Parfitt wrote:Incidentally Graham, there are 30.48 Centimetres in a Foot!Malcolm ParfittOn 15 Sep 2024, at 8:31 pm, 'Richard Turner' via VIPhone wrote:Very likely as I was just copying from Copilot and didn't pay close attention.

Questions about apple watch and swimming.
Hi everyone! I am considering getting a jym membership with a pool for exercising. I was also considering getting an apple watch to use while swimming so that I could listen to music while swimming, and also to be able to tell how long I have been in the pool so that I can be sure that I get out and dressed in time to catch the bus to go back home. I planned to use some waterproof head phones to listen to the music. >From other emails in this list on this issue, I know that in order to swim >with the apple watch you have to turn on a waterlock and you have to turn this >off in order to do things with the watch like have it read the screen. >However, is it still possible to use the watch to tell time while swimming? >Also if you set up the music such as a pandora station before initiating the >water lock feature, can you listen to the music after the feature is engaged? > alternatively, is there an apple watch case or something that is waterproof >that could be used instead of the water lock feature? -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

Re: Apple Watch 10 strap sizes question?
If you have a piece of string or even a shoe lace, you could use it to measure around your wrist, as long as you have a measuring tape to measure its length afterwards. For sighted assistance, do not forget that you could call a volunteer with Be My eyes.I have use Be My Eyes for that before. One time I needed to measure something, so after measuring it with a tape measure, I used a volunteer to tell me the measurement on the tape measure.As far as learning what the sizes 1 to 12 stand for, I would call Apple accessibility and tell them what your doing and you just need to know what those numbers stand for as far as sizes. Hope this helps.Chris ChaffinOn Sep 11, 2024, at 3:30 PM, Malcolm Parfitt wrote:Hello Richard,Thanks for your comprehensive reply.Unfortunately sighted help is not something I have readily available to me at the moment.

RE: Apple Watch 10 strap sizes question?
Malcolm, There are some sizing guidelines out there that suggest using a cloth measuring tape, like what a taylor would use, or a piece of string, wrapped around your wrist so it fits snuggly so the watch will maintain contact with your wrist, then measure the length of the string, or if a cloth measuring tape, it will show you. Obviously, this takes sighted assistance. Then, if you measure in inches, you will need to convert to centimeters. 25.4 centimeters per inch. Apple used to have a pdf you could download and print out, then wrap it around your wrist to get the measurement. And, I gather the bands match the size of the watch so you need to know what size the watch is, of course. I understand the series 10 have a new connection system so old bands won't work.

RE: Apple Watch 10 strap sizes question?
When I just did a Google search for "Apple Watch 10 strap sizes", one of th efirst few search results was a PDF file from Apple which contains a tool to find your exact strap size. You would, however, need sighted help since there are a few requirements: First, you have to print the page at 100% scaling and there is a way to check after the page printed if the size is correct. There is a box on the page and if you put a credit card in that box and it's an exact fit, then it's printed correctly. Second, you have to cut out the tool or template and then wrap it arund your wrist and there will be an arrow pointing at a line which indicates your exact size. Of course if you have an Apple Store nearby you could simply go there as I am sure they have something similar to determine your strap size. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Malcolm Parfitt Sent: Wednesday, September 11, 2024 9:42 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Cc: watchosblindusersgr...@groups.io Subject: Apple Watch 10 strap sizes question?

RE: Apple Watch 10 and "new" Ultra 2
I assume if you started music playing before on a Bluetooth headset and then turned on waterlock it would continue, never tried it because I have yet to find a waterproof headset I liked. As for Voiceover, no, with waterlock on the screen is locked so you have to press and hold the crow to remove the waterlock first before you can get anything out of Voiceover. If the watch is wet and you have wet hands touch gestures are also a bit more hit and miss so often I wipe my watch on my bathing trunks even though they are also wet, but at least it removes any water droplets and if you then blow across the display for a second or two, it does at least make it a little better. I haven’t yet really spend any time with a sighted person to ask what sort of information they see with waterlock on, but I assume they can see the workout screen just fine showing them how many lanes they did and all that. they From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Barbara Stahl Sent: Tuesday, September 10, 2024 6:41 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Apple Watch 10 and "new" Ultra 2 So for clarification when you're swimming and you put the water lock on, you can't use VoiceOver at all not even to tell time.

In fact, even my Apple Watch Ultra 2 at 100% volume is not loud enough where I can really hear the details when I do a pool swim even if it’s only moderately noisy in the pool. I actually had ordered a bone conduduction headset similar to an Aftershokz which is waterproof from Amazon, but it just did not have a good fit and I returned it immediately. I saw that Shokz also makes a waterproof one which I think is called OpenSwim and I may just have to get that, of course the fact they have an “OpenCom”, an “OpenRun” and an “OpenSwim” is purely marketing, they just should make one version which is waterproof and be done with it. And just for anybody who is interested, another pet peeve of mine is the fact that when I do a pool swim the app always counts one lane short, e.g. if I do 40 laps it counts 39, but of course I know I have done 40 because I end up on the same side of the pool where I started which means it has to be an even number. We only have half an Olympic size pool with 25 meter lanes so if I start on the shallow end and swim down to the deep end that is my first lane, then I swim back to the shallow end and that is #2, I usually swim 1 Km which means I do 40 lanes or 20 times back and forth, but when I get back after the last one and then stop the work out it shows me that I did 39 lanes.

Well, I found one for only 20 bucks not bad at all. I’m gonna snag it. It’s actually a case and band combo not bad at all.

From Applevis, iPhone 16, Apple Watch Series 10, and New AirPods: Recap of Apple's "It's Glowtime"
The link to the Applevis blog follows the text. iPhone 16, Apple Watch Series 10, and New AirPods: Recap of Apple's "It's Glowtime" September Event Intro Today's Apple announcements, at an event entitled "It's Glowtime", were exactly what many of us expected: new iPhones, Apple Watches, and AirPods. We also got a release day for all the big software updates. watchOS, iOS, iPadOS, tvOS, and macOS will all get their big upgrades on Monday, September 16. TL;DR: * Apple Watch Series 10 is a bit thinner (9.7mm) than Series 9, and comes in at larger screen sizes (42mm and 46mm). The screen is brighter when viewed at an angle and updates faster in Always On Display mode. Sleep apnea detection is the headline feature and comes to the Series 9 as well. Stainless steel is out, titanium is in. It can survive more water, so has the same water pressure and temperature sensing that the Ultra has. The Ultra now comes in black but is otherwise unchanged. * AirPods: new AirPods 4 have a speaker in the case, nodding and head-shaking detection for responding to Siri, and other features that used to be only in the Pro line. They cost $129. A more expensive model with active noise cancellation and other Pro-only features is also available, for $179. Yes, that's ANC, conversation mode, transparency mode, and other features on AirPods without ear-sealing tips. AirPods Pro 2 get a hearing aid feature that boosts problematic frequencies for you, which are determined through a new hearing test in iOS 18. * iPhone 16 has better cameras, the same screen, better durability, faster chip, wifi 7, and new buttons. The Action button from iPhone 15 Pro is on the 16, as is the new camera control button. This is a flat area of the bezel you can press to open your favorite camera app, lightly press to lock focus or bring up controls, firmly press to take a picture, or swipe side to side to control zoom or move through controls. * iPhone 16 Pro has all the same updates as iPhone 16. It has an even faster chip optimized for AI and machine learning tasks, a bunch of features for videographers, better cameras, and better microphones. iPhone Let's start with iPhone, even if Apple kept this for the end of their presentation. To no one's surprise, this year's iPhones are the best yet, with the best cameras and screens. One neat change is Ceramic Shield, which was upgraded to be 50% more durable than in previous years. Anything that makes my phone tougher is a good thing in my book. As usual, I'll skip over most of the camera stuff, but the way the cameras are controlled now is actually really cool. All of the new phones have what Apple calls the camera control button. This is a flat area on the side of the phone surrounded by a border of metal. It is pressure-sensitive and uses haptic feedback, but isn't actually a button. It acts a lot like a modern MacBook trackpad, or the home button in iPhone 7 and 8. You can press it to open your favorite camera app. Once that opens, you can lightly press to lock focus, slide a finger sideways to change the focus or zoom, firmly press to take a picture, and more. Apps can customize the various gestures and presses for this button. In one app, a double light press might open more camera controls, while in another, sliding might switch between camera lenses instead of changing the zoom level. It sounds like a powerful new tool for apps to play with. If you press and hold the camera control button, something interesting happens. Your phone will take a picture, then use onboard and internet intelligence to look it up. If you take a picture of a dog, you'll see information about the dog breed. If you took a picture of a restaurant, you'll get hours of operation and reviews. You get the idea. This is essentially a web and AI search of the real world, available by simply long-pressing one button. All iPhone 16 models also get the action button. Last year, only iPhone 15 Pro got this, so it's great to see that the base model iPhone 16 isn't left out this time. For those unfamiliar, this button replaces the mute switch. By default, it simply toggles between mute and ring modes, just like the switch did. However, you can customize it to perform various default actions, such as toggling the flashlight or opening an app. You can even assign a shortcut to run when the button is pressed, letting you do things like run one action if you're at home, another if it's night time, and another if your battery is low. Charging speeds have improved, at least if you get the new MagSafe chargers. All iPhone 16 models can now charge up to 25W with the latest MagSafe. Qi 2 and the previous MagSafe both top out at 15W on iPhone, so this is quite the increase. Note that the newest MagSafe chargers will still work with older devices, they just won't go as fast as they can with iPhone 16. Once

RE: Recent strange behaviour with my Apple Watch Series 7.
Almost sounds like maybe the side button is stuck? -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Malcolm Parfitt Sent: Monday, September 2, 2024 8:32 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Recent strange behaviour with my Apple Watch Series 7. Hello, I have an Apple Watch Series 7 running watchOS Version 11.0 (22R5348a). Recently it has been behaving rather oddly. For no apparent reason the watch will bring up the power off screen, and double tapping Cancel dismisses that screen only to reappear seconds later. If I press the Digital Crown rather than bringing up the list of apps on the watch it too brings up the power off screen. Has anyone ever experienced such an issue and if so how did you resolve it? I have reset the watch, restored from a backup and set it up as a new device but periodically the issue described above will reoccur. If it’s a hardware problem as I suspect it is than an upgrade later this month may be my wisest choice. Malcolm Parfitt -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

Recent strange behaviour with my Apple Watch Series 7.
Hello, I have an Apple Watch Series 7 running watchOS Version 11.0 (22R5348a). Recently it has been behaving rather oddly. For no apparent reason the watch will bring up the power off screen, and double tapping Cancel dismisses that screen only to reappear seconds later. If I press the Digital Crown rather than bringing up the list of apps on the watch it too brings up the power off screen. Has anyone ever experienced such an issue and if so how did you resolve it? I have reset the watch, restored from a backup and set it up as a new device but periodically the issue described above will reoccur. If it’s a hardware problem as I suspect it is than an upgrade later this month may be my wisest choice. Malcolm Parfitt -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

Re: How To Play a Playlist, Apple Music Station, or the Result of Any Apple Music Query Directly from the iOS Home Screen and / or Apple Watch
Mark, wow!! This is a fantastic description of how to use the Shortcuts app for this purpose. I have never found an equally thorough and clear description of how to use the Shortcuts app. I will keep this message forever and use it regularly. Thanks again.

Also, in order for this to work, as I describe, you must have an Apple Music subscription. Here we go: 1. Ask Siri to play some kind of music that you know you will want to hear in the future.

Select Create Shortcut. 4. >From the Add Action menu, select Play Music and add it to your shortcut. This >will be the only action in the shortcut. 5. Place Voice Over focus on the action and swipe up until you land on “Edit, Play Music”, then single-finger, double-tap in order to activate this option. 6. Select Home.

Doing this will close the Apple Music UI and return you to the Shortcuts app. This may take a few seconds so give it time. 8. If you place VO focus on the single action of the shortcut, you will now hear VO announce the action with the name of the query you selected in the above step such as, “Play, 1980s music for working out.” Essentially, the shortcut is complete. The next steps simply allow you to rename the shortcut and save it to your home screen and/or Apple Watch. Understand that there are several ways to accomplish this but I’m only going to list what I think is the least confusing for novice shortcut creators. 9. Select Done. This will close the shortcut and place you back in a list of all of the shortcuts currently installed on your device. Assuming that you followed the steps above, your new shortcut defaults to the name, “Play Music,” followed by the number of actions in the shortcut. 10. With VO focused on your new Shortcut in the Shortcuts list area, single-finger swipe up until you hear, “Edit Shortcut,” and select the option. This will place you back in the Shortcuts editor with the shortcut, in question, opened. 11. Single-finger swipe until VO focus lands on the Done button. Do not activate this button. 12. Swipe to the left until VO lands on, “Play Music, Actions Menu, Button.” 13. Activate this button. A menu will open with several useful options including, Share, Rename, Choose Icon, Duplicate, Move, Add to Home Screen, and Export File. 14. I suggest that you first choose to rename the shortcut to the name of the station, playlist, etc., that describes the music the shortcut will play. Once this has been done, then select the option to add the Shortcut to the Home screen and then you will be good to go. Now, whenever you want to listen to the station designated in the shortcut, simply activate it from your IOS home screen and it will immediately begin to play without launching the Apple Music app. Mark -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

apple watch typing
My watch wants me to type in my ID. I cannot find a keyboard. My phone states that I can use my iOS on screen keyboard but there is not one there.

RE: Pinch Gesture On Apple Watch Ultra 2
Hi all, I’ve played with my watch trying to get the pinch gesture to work since my original post. I’ve played with several arm and hand positions such as keeping my arm parallel and perpendicular to the floor, using my wrist at various angles, trying to use different finger combinations and using different parts of the fingers being used to perform the pinch gesture. I’m finally able to get the gesture to work about 80 to 85 percent of the time. I use my index finger and thumb to form the letter “O” and then tap the very tips of those fingers to perform the pinch gesture. As I said , this works most of the time. Anyone with longer fingernails may have some trouble tapping the tips of their fingers together. I hope I’m explaining myself clearly but, if not , please reply to this post and I’ll try to do a better job. Thank you.

RE: Question: What is the VoiceOver Gesture to Change Apple Watch Faces, on the Fly?
Hi Diane, I'm not Mark, but going to the clock setting on the watch the first item is swipe to switch watch face, which was off. Turning it on makes it possible to change watch faces with a two finger swipe left or right. Thank you. I doubt I would have found it.

RE: Question: What is the VoiceOver Gesture to Change Apple Watch Faces, on the Fly?
Hi, Disregard the question. Apparently, what has been a default feature since the release of Apple Watch series 2, is now a feature that must manually be enabled from within the settings area of the OS. I truly don't know why Apple keeps changing even the most basic settings when those settings have been time-tested for years. To manually enable this old feature, open the Settings app, on the watch and then go to Clock. At the top of the list you will see an option to enable this feature. Mark -Original Message- From: M.

Re: Apple Watch 8 Not Speaking
This has happened to me about 3 or 4 times over the last few months with my Apple watch 8. I also could hear the clicking and there was no reason for the watch to stop talking. I do use Apple air pods 2nd gen but the watch rarely connects to them. The first time I told watch Siri to start outdoor walk workout and held the watch close to my ear pod and I could hear it on the earpod. Then it started talking again. No rhyme or reason. Lately when it happens I go to the watch screen mirroring in the Accessibility under the Settings app on my iPhone SE 3. (It does take more than a minute for the watch to connect.) Actually I can’t say I followed any specific steps from here but after a while of trying various things the sound has come back. I have been afraid to try turning the watch off without speech since on Christmas eve I was going to restart it and it went into emergency mode. Luckily that time I was able to get a sighted friend to cancel it. I wish I could be more precise about what I did but I do hope this might help. I am running watch 10 but it also happened when I was running watch OS 9 as well.

Apple Watch 8 Not Speaking
Hi Everyone, All of a sudden today, my Apple watch 8 stopped talking. It still makes clicking noises when I move around the face and every once in a while a bell tone goes off until I do something that shuts it off. No I don't remember exactly what I do to get the bell to stop and have no idea what I did to make the speech stop. I asked the watch to turn on VO and it did say that it was on but that's all I have gotten it to say. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Re: Apple watch and sleep focus
I’m glad that mystery is solved. Actually, I should have twigged I suppose because when I first started using sleep focus just before Christmas I noticed the display darkens; I can see a tiny bit. I noticed the display come to life when tapping the watch. I perhaps should have twigged that I needed to tap it once to wake and then twice to get the vibrations.

Re: Apple watch and sleep focus
I finally got taptic time to work for me on my SE watch. I had to turn off raise to speak time in the VoiceOver settings, which didn’t seem to do anything. Thanks for all the notes, otherwise I would have just thought it was an unreliable service when VoiceOver is running. I was only able to get taptic time to work when I didn’t want it, like when removing the watch from my wrist. > On Jan 3, 2024, at 3:43 PM, Sieghard Weitzel wrote: > > Yes, I received another message from Apple Accessibility yesterday where this > was also explained.

RE: Apple watch and sleep focus
Yes, I received another message from Apple Accessibility yesterday where this was also explained. I assume this was sent on to a higher level because the first response I received simply stated what the support article said which is a 1-finger double tap for hours and minutes and a 1-finger triple tap for just minutes. In fact, they even pointed out " If the watch is awake, place your palm over the watch face to put it to sleep or if Wake on Wrist Raise is turned on, turn your wrist downwards and then perform the one-finger double tap. We tested this with a Sleep Focus enabled and managed to get the same results". Below is the entire conversation I had regarding this starting with my initial message, their reply, my response and then the second message where they state an additional tap is required if any type of focus is active: From: Apple Accessibility Sent: Wednesday, December 20, 2023 11:39 AM To: siegh...@outlook.com Subject: Re: RE: Haptic time on /apple Watch Hello Sieghard, Expected behavior with Taptic Time while VoiceOver is enabled is to use a one-finger double tap to feel hours and minutes, or a one-finger triple tap for just the minutes. This is with the screen locked. If the watch is awake, place your palm over the watch face to put it to sleep or if Wake on Wrist Raise is turned on, turn your wrist downwards and then perform the one-finger double tap.

Re: Apple accessibility reply regarding haptic time on Apple Watch
When Apple Watch is in Silent Mode, tap and hold 2 fingers on the watch face to feel a haptic version of the time.When VoiceOver is on, double-tap to feel hours and minutes. Triple-tap to feel minutes only. below is the hint in the Watch app on the phone for haptic time, I assume the first part is referring to when voiceover is off.Richard, USA“Grandma always told us, “Be careful when you pray for patience.

RE: Apple Watch Ultra 2
If you have stand reminders enabled it should just remind you although I don't know if it's necessary on the hour. If you had been standing/walking around at say 9:45 AM then I doubt it would remind you 15 minutes later at 10 AM that you have to stand again. I do have it on, but rarely get the notification because during a normal work day it is not often that I sit for more than an hour at a time. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Wren Langley Sent: Sunday, December 24, 2023 9:09 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com; viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Apple Watch Ultra 2 Hi All, and thank you for the help.

Re: Apple accessibility reply regarding haptic time on Apple Watch
Hi all, I have a Series 7 Apple Watch (41 mm). I am still running Watch OS 9, as I gathered that there were some bugs with version 10. I use Taptic Time frequently, and pretty consistently. I also have Sleep Focus enabled, but in my case this does not alter the number of taps required: regardless of the time, I always do a one-finger double tap for hours and minutes, and a one-finger triple tap for just minutes. If I want the watch to remain silent, I turn speech off using a three-finger double tap, the same gesture as on the phone. Haptic Time works fine when speech is turned off. My watch is not an SE, by the way, it's the standard model. I hope this is helpful. Best, Nicky Sent from my iPhone > On 24 Dec 2023, at 13:24, M.

On my new Apple Watch Ultra 2 I can use haptic time with very good consistency, however, there is one oddity which sounds like it is a bug. First of all, here is what Apple Accessibility said in their reply to the email I sent them in which I asked for clarification as to which gesture exactly should work and what result to expect and whether there were any exceptions: Hello Sieghard, Expected behavior with Taptic Time while VoiceOver is enabled is to use a one-finger double tap to feel hours and minutes, or a one-finger triple tap for just the minutes. This is with the screen locked. If the watch is awake, place your palm over the watch face to put it to sleep or if Wake on Wrist Raise is turned on, turn your wrist downwards and then perform the one-finger double tap. We tested this with a Sleep Focus enabled and managed to get the same results. If you are receiving different results when trying these above steps, we recommend partnering with a member of our AppleCare Accessibility Support team to further troubleshoot. If they are unable to resolve the concern through troubleshooting, then they can escalate their findings to the appropriate teams for further investigation. You will find the contact information for the team in the following support article: https://support.apple.com/HT209585 The reason why they mentioned sleep focus is because for me a 1 finger double tap does absolutely nothing when my automatic sleep focus is on. It is set to start at 10:30 PM and end at 7 AM and by now I have tested and reproduced this at least 10 times. If I double tap the screen at 10:28 PM or 7:01 AM all is well and haptic time vibrates the hours and minutes. If I do so at 10:31 PM or a minute or two before 7 AM the doubl e tap does nothing, but a triple tap with 1 finger gives me hours and minutes consistently. In the sam eway a quadruple tap during the time when sleep focus is on gives me just the minutes in haptic time, of course when sleep focus is not on I already get just minutes after a triple tap. I plan to reach out to the support resources they mention in the arcticle in the new year because unless some other setting causes this, it should definitely be something they take a closer look at. I would be very curious to know if others have to use a triple and quadruple tap and if so, whether this is also in certain scenarious or whether it is always so. Please make sure to also mention the watch model you have since I assume this could also have something to do with it.

Re: Apple accessibility reply regarding haptic time on Apple Watch
It does not work consistently for me. I have S E version of the watch. It seems like the first time I do a triple tap, it doesn’t work. If I try it again, it usually works. If voice over is turned off, it does not work. > On Dec 23, 2023, at 11:25 PM, Sieghard Weitzel wrote: > > A few days ago the discussion about haptic time on the Apple Watch came up > again and a few people posted they could not get it towrk at all whereas > others had no issues and yet again others seemed to get mixed results. > > On my new Apple Watch Ultra 2 I can use haptic time with very good > consistency, however, there is one oddity which sounds like it is a bug. > First of all, here is what Apple Accessibility said in their reply to the > email I sent them in which I asked for clarification as to which gesture > exactly should work and what result to expect and whether there were any > exceptions: > > Hello Sieghard, > Expected behavior with Taptic Time while VoiceOver is enabled is to use a > one-finger double tap to feel hours and minutes, or a one-finger triple tap > for just the minutes.

The prerequesit is that the Apple Watch screen is off/asleep. In a recent discussion it seems many people say for them this works only reliably if you tap the screen 3 times for hours and minutes and 4 times for minutes. I found with my Apple Watch series 5 40mm that haptic time rarely worked. I now have an Apple Watch Ultra 2 and I discovered the following which probably applies also to my series 5, but I haven’t checked it yet although I still have the series 5 because I’m a bit of a prograstinater when it comes to selling stuff. Here is what I discovered: I have a daily “sleep” focus set which starts at 10:30 PM and it stops at 7 AM. I found that if it is past 10:30 PM, e.g. the sleep focus is active, a 1-finger double tap does nothing except it wakes up the display, but a 3-finger tap starts hours and minutes in haptic time and a quadruple tap does just the minutes. However, during the day, e.g. after 7 AM and before 10:30 PM when the sleep focus is not active, the double tap Apple says one should use works just fine and the triple tap gives me just minutes even though when the sleep focus is active it will give me hours and minutes. I just wrote Apple Accessibility a message regarding this because I assume this is a bug, but not sure until they reply. What I don’t understand is that why we can’t use the regular gesture for haptic time. Yes, haptic time is not actually an accessibility feature, it is available to all Apple Watch users in Settings > Clock as long as you said “Speak Time” to “Control with silent mode” instead of “Always”. According to the article, if you don’t use Voiceover you simply rest 2 fingers on the screen for a moment to get haptic time.

RE: Haptic time on Apple Watch Ultra 2
If I do a triple tap during the day all I get is minutes and I can reproduce this over and over. Just now, it’s 11:45 PM so well past the start of my 10:30 PM sleep focus, a double tap once again does nothing and the triple tap consistently gives me hours and minutes in haptic time.

Yes, that is how I have it set up, sleep focus starts at 10:30 PM and that is the case on both my iPhone and Apple Watch. If I get up at 6:30 AM or any time before 7, I often get a notification on my watcch which says “It looks like you are awake” and I am then asked if I want to turn off the 7 AM alarm.

On the watch, in settings -> general -> focus, you can set it to mirror the focus on your iPhone. I don’t have my watch with me right now, but I’d check to see if there’s a way to toggle focus in the control panel. BTW, I used the health app to set up my sleep schedule, so my iPhone goes into sleep mode on a regular week day and weekend schedule.

I found that if it is past 10:30 PM, e.g. the sleep focus is active, a 1-finger double tap does nothing except it wakes up the display, but a 3-finger tap starts hours and minutes in haptic time and a quadruple tap does just the minutes. However, during the day, e.g. after 7 AM and before 10:30 PM when the sleep focus is not active, the double tap Apple says one should use works just fine and the triple tap gives me just minutes even though when the sleep focus is active it will give me hours and minutes. I just wrote Apple Accessibility a message regarding this because I assume this is a bug, but not sure until they reply. What I don’t understand is that why we can’t use the regular gesture for haptic time.

RE: sleep modeRE: Haptic time on Apple Watch Ultra 2
On my iPhone, in settings -> focus, I have it set so that when my focus changes on my iPhone, it'll change on my watch. On the watch, in settings -> general -> focus, you can set it to mirror the focus on your iPhone. I don't have my watch with me right now, but I'd check to see if there's a way to toggle focus in the control panel. BTW, I used the health app to set up my sleep schedule, so my iPhone goes into sleep mode on a regular week day and weekend schedule. You can also add and configure different focuses in settings -> focus, on your iPhone. -- Christopher (AKA CJ) =>÷ Chaltain at Outlook, USA From: 'Linda C.
