Apple calls watchOS 10 its milestone update for Apple Watch, and in many ways, it’s the biggest software update since the Apple Watch was first released in 2014. Apple has not only redesigned many of its own apps but has also changed how you navigate the interface.
Swiping up on the watch face now displays the new Smart Stack feature on Apple Watch, a set of widgets that change based on the time, location, and activity. If you want to open Control Center on your Apple Watch, you now have to press the side button under the Digital Crown. To close the menu, press the side button again.
As an Apple Watch user, the side button isn’t something I’ve used very often. Previously, pressing this button brought up the app switcher, where you could view and open your recent apps. The app switcher is now accessible by double pressing the Digital Crown.
Unfortunately, Apple doesn’t offer a way to change how you open Control Center, which is a shame because pressing the side button doesn’t feel nearly as intuitive as swiping up on the screen. If you’ve been a long-time Apple Watch user, navigating watchOS and using the different menu functions is probably second nature, and it might take a while for you to get used to the changes.
