Hello Terri. Sure, here's some answers. Crown up simply refers to
turning your hand so your wrist is facing up. The vibrations you are
feeling are because the watch is trying to vibrate the time to you. If
you do a double tap on the watch, it will vibrate the whole time with
hours and minutes, and
Very good explanation, Sieghard. You taught me something too. Is there a way to

Apple Accessibility told me to keep Low Power off on my
battery. I had tried this, but he said that my phone
probably would not vibrate until after my next battery
charge. So, I am hoping/assuming, that is a solution to that
problem that I know you all have heard enough about. Thanks
for help.
Thanks, Simon, I believe with Mute that it does. The phone is charging in the

Easiest way doesn't take long to explain and it's not difficult, just double
tap and hold with 2 fingers and then drag up or down.
If you want to increase the volume do the gesture towards the bottom of the

Make sure your volume isn't turned down, maybe the watch is waking but the
volume is very low.
The vibrations are telling the time. You are probably inadvertantly doing a
1-finger double or triple tap or at least the watch is interpreting your
gestures or taps that way.

There's a chance that you could have turned your volume down for voice
over. Try the side volume keys first to see if you get it back. You
might need to try this and then triple tap and try again since you
currently don't know if voice over is on or off. If that doesn't work
try the rotor.
