How to Rotate Your Apple Watch Screen

The first method to rotate your screen is directly on the Apple Watch itself. You can do this in a few steps, here’s how:

• Go to ‘Settings’
• Go to ‘General’
• Tap ‘Orientation’ to access screen rotation settings
• Select which wrist your smartwatch is on (left or right)
• Choose which side you want the Digital Crown to be on

After following these steps, your screen will rotate. Once properly adjusted, wear your Apple Watch as you prefer.

You can also rotate your screen via the Watch app on your phone. Open the Watch app on your iPhone, press ‘General,’ and find the ‘Watch Orientation’ setting. Here, you can rotate your Apple Watch screen by adjusting settings, such as placing the Digital Crown on the left or right side.

Can You Change the Digital Crown’s Direction on Apple Watch?

Absolutely! The Digital Crown is typically on the right side but is fully reversible. You can have it on the left or right, depending on your preference.

Go to Settings > General > Orientation to change the Digital Crown’s position to the left or right. Now you can wear your Apple Watch however you like.

Why Rotate Your Apple Watch Screen?

Why would you want to rotate your screen? It depends entirely on the situation. In some cases, rotating your screen can be handy. You might prefer the Digital Crown on the other side, or it could be useful whether you wear your smartwatch on your left or right wrist.

Another reason could be if you use a nursing Apple Watch strap. In this case, it’s nice to read information right-side up on your smartwatch.

In Summary

Rotating the screen on your Apple Watch can be done quickly via the settings. Rotating your screen also adjusts the position of your Digital Crown.
