I locate the bottom of the watch face and then swipe left and right to find the 
number desired. One finger double tap on the number has worked flawlessly for 
me.
Best,

Hi!
I use to find the digit and hold my finger on it and tap with another finger on

That works for me.

I have never had a problem entering my pass code on my Apple Watch using

Only tricky thing is, when I select and then double tap on a digit, I do not

This is not always been the case, but Apple changed it several versions of

Hello,
How can I reliably enter my 4 digit passcode on my Apple Watch SE running the

Subject: Passcode on Apple watch

Hello,
I have recently acquired an Apple Watch SE running the latest Watch OS. I use 
my Apple Watch for haptic time and for tracking health data such as heart beat 
and exercise data. 
For security reasons I would rather not have private data such as Mail, 
Messages, Contacts, Wallet and Calendar data on my watch but it seems that I 
cannot remove these Apps from my watch.
So it seems that I must set a passcode on my watch. As a VO user I use touch 
typing mode on my iPhone but it seems that this is not available on my watch 
and the alternative of the touch with one finger and tap with another finger is 
not possible on the small watch face. So how do I reliably enter a passcode on 
my watch?
I see that there is an option for my iPhone to unlock my watch when I unlock my 
 iPhone. If I set this on then do I still have to enter the passcode on my 
watch every time I replace it on my wrist after removing it for charging?
In summary what is the easiest way for a VO user to secure an Apple Watch?
Many thanks for any tips … Paul Hopewell

Re: Passcode on Apple watch

Hi Everyone.  I have found that if you swipe your apple watch can tell you how 
many numbers you have written in your passcode text field. M It used to click, 
and I wish that would come back, but they don’t want to revitalize the clicks 
which worked great.  Lately, However, to find out how many numbers are written 
in the text field, start by swiping down by number from the number and the text 
field will open HDH

Re: Passcode on Apple watch

2021-03-04 Thread Chris Moore
A couple things:
First, if your iPhone is handy, you can put your watch on your wrist and unlock 
your phone to avoid entering the passcode.
Second, rather than swiping on your watch, you can simply move your finger on 
the watch face until you land on the digit, then double-tap.

Re: Passcode on Apple watch

2021-03-04 Thread Anders Holmberg
Hi!
I use a passcode and I first swipe to the digit I want and double tap on that.
It is a bit tricky in the beginning but you will get used to it.

Re: Passcode on Apple watch

The only I know to enter my passcode is by using the double tap method.

Passcode on Apple watch

2021-03-04 Thread Paul Hopewell
Hello,
I have recently acquired an Apple Watch SE running the latest Watch OS. I use 
my Apple Watch for haptic time and for tracking health data such as heart beat 
and exercise data. 
For security reasons I would rather not have private data such as Mail, 
Messages, Contacts, Wallet and Calendar data on my watch but it seems that I 
cannot remove these Apps from my watch.
So it seems that I must set a passcode on my watch. As a VO user I use touch 
typing mode on my iPhone but it seems that this is not available on my watch 
and the alternative of the touch with one finger and tap with another finger is 
not possible on the small watch face. So how do I reliably enter a passcode on 
my watch?
I see that there is an option for my iPhone to unlock my watch when I unlock my 
 iPhone. If I set this on then do I still have to enter the passcode on my 
watch every time I replace it on my wrist after removing it for charging?
In summary what is the easiest way for a VO user to secure an Apple Watch?
Many thanks for any tips … Paul Hopewell
