Are you looking to learn how to change the orientation of your Apple Watch face? Whether you want to switch from wearing your watch on your left wrist to your right, or just need to flip the screen for a better view, it’s easy to do. In this blog post, we’ll show you step-by-step how to change the orientation of your Apple Watch so that it’s always comfortable and convenient.
First, press the Digital Crown on the side of your watch, which will open up all the apps on your device. Next, go into Settings, then scroll down until you see “Orientation” and tap that. This is where you can choose which wrist you would like to wear your Apple Watch on – either left or right.
Once that is set up, check out the settings within the Watch app on your iPhone. Go into General and then select “Watch Orientation” where you can choose which side of your wrist should have the Digital Crown. Make sure these two settings are aligned for an optimal experience.
Finally, if swiping up still isn’t working properly on your Apple Watch after changing the orientation settings, it may be due to dirt or debris built up around the edges of the screen or under a protective case. Cleaning these areas with a soft cloth can help improve responsiveness when swiping up or down.
