So in today's video I'm going to go ahead and show you all the important tips and tricks that there is to know about your smartwatch, so you can really get the most out of your device. Let's get started off. You guys will use Siri on your smartphone to locate your Apple Watch as Siri will actually utilize the heart rate sensor, to give it a flash, so you can locate it faster and then in case you lose your phone. You can do this also vi versa by simply bringing up the control center.

If you tap on the little phone icon, it'll pin your device and if you press and hold it will actually cause it to do a flash still in the control center. If you actually tap the little flashlight icon, it will actually get super bright. That could actually eliminate a dark room. If you slide, you have strobe lights as well as this red light as well to be better identified. If you're running outdoors or something now new, this time for a watch was seven is now.

If you go all the way down, you can actually rearrange the control center, but not only that you could remove some or add some and just tap done once you're done now. If you have your Apple Watch unmuted, and you receive an incoming notification or phone call just put your palm over it cover it. If you hold it down for a couple seconds, it will automatically switch the device to silent mode. If you don't have cover to mute, enabled just follow the screened instructions down there. Now, if we take off our device out of mute and if you tap the screen with your two fingers on the watch, face it'll verbally, read out loud the time to take a screenshot just hold the crown wheel, as well as the power button, it will take a screenshot and the settings to enable it follow the on-screen instructions.

If you want to manually pause your workout press, the digital crown and power button, then do it again to resume if you're, using an Apple Watch with an always on display, and you wish to hide some complication information around others from peaking and viewing the type of information that your Apple Watch is displaying by simply just going into your settings. Go in screen in brightness, go on always on and then just go ahead and move this, so it can hide sensitive complications. You can now request Siri to not only open up certain websites, if you say google.

You can also navigate around the display with those two fingers as well. Now, if you want to go ahead and enable this zoom function to simply go into your settings, go to accessibility, go into zoom and right here, enable it, and you can control the zoom level right there. Now, if you're, using an Apple Watch that supports ECG if you're taking a regular heart rate, it's actually faster.

This is how you clear it all in the battery life section in the control center.

If you tap on it, you could quickly enable power reserve mode which should give you about a few days of battery life for your Apple Watch, but the only con to this is that it will only display the time if you want to reverse the process to make your Apple Watch go back to normal. You have to reboot the entire watch now, if you have a pair of Bluetooth headphones connected to it like in our case, we have AirPods in here.

Your Apple Watch will give you a haptic feedback or will play a sound if you want to quickly enable this just go back in your settings.

Go into accessibility scroll down to chimes and right here is where you can enable this as well as change the sound now full detection was something that was introduced on the series 4 and by default it's not enabled automatically unless you're at a certain age, I believe 65 or older. It's enabled by default.
