If you’ve had an Apple Watch for a while, you’ll recall being able to change watch faces with a simple swipe gesture over the display. That was the default interface in watchOS 9, but Apple eliminated it with the watchOS 10 release.
Apple altered the interaction in response to user complaints that it was too easy to change watch faces accidentally. However, for those who have never experienced this issue, Apple has made things even more difficult by demanding a long touch before swiping to change the active watch face.
How to Change Watch Faces with a Swipe in watchOS 10.2?
Fortunately, Apple seems to have realised what it had done before the introduction of watchOS 10.2, and it has added a setting that restores the previous manner of swiping to change watch faces. If you prefer the older interface, the steps below will show you how to enable it.
- On your watch, open the Settings app.
- Press the Clock button.
- Toggle the switch next to Swipe to Switch Watch Face on and off.
That’s the end of it. If you have more than one watch face on your Apple Watch, you may now quickly and simply switch between them.
