1.) Apple watch hand gestures

  • 8 million views, 572.7k likes

By using certain hand gestures and movement, you can access features on your Apple watch. OnBuy Smart Watches found this viral video by @ellyawesometech who shows you how to go  into the settings of your smartwatch and assign certain gestures to action. An example seen in the video is clenching your fist to open Apple pay which astonishingly has been watched 8 million times.

2.) Secret spy camera

  • 1.9 million views, 65.9k likes

OnBuy Smart Watches discovered this Viral TikTok by @katamogz who demonstrates when  you connect your iPhone to your Apple Watch you can open up the camera app on your watch to access your live camera feed. This allows you to set up your phone elsewhere as long as you are within range and take snaps remotely.

3.) A seamless workout

  • 1.5 million views, 83.4k likes

Rather than having to start and stop your workouts, @cnnunderscored illustrates how to create one continuous workout on your Apple Watch without having to stop and start everytime you want to log a new exercise. You can do this easily by pressing the “+” button mid workout rather than end. This will allow you to proceed onto your next workout whilst keeping all the data from your previous one. When you are finished, press end and you will see all of your activities collectively tracked and stored under the same workout session.

4.) Apple Watch Disney time

  • 673.2k views, 46.6k likes

OnBuy Smart Watches found this TikTok tip from @hayls_world which shows us a cool trick to not only get your Apple watch to tell you the time, and “normally”,  but in the voices of Mickey and Minnie Mouse! To do this,  simply hold the screen down with two fingers on the desired clock screen.

5.) Leaving a tip

  • 264.9k views, 3.6k likes

This tip from @easypaycheckboy accumulated a huge 264 thousand views. When leaving a tip, the thought of working out the correct math can be daunting. However, Apple’s feature on the calculator titled ‘TIP’ will calculate whatever percentage tip you would like to give, and will allow you to  input the number of people splitting the bill to work out the individual contributions that need to be made to make up the tip.

6.) Hidden Flashlight

  • 173.3k views, 10.5k likes

@ellyawesometech demonstrates how to use the Apple Watch flashlight system which could be a life-shaving hack. By clicking the ‘torch’ icon on your screen you will be taken to a bright white screen which in the dark is so bright it can be used like a flashlight. This setting also has options, such as a red light, which helps your eyes to adjust easier in the dark, as well as a flashing light which can be used as an SOS signal or can double as a light to use when running or cycling to show vehicles where you are.

7.) Apple Maps

  • 76.1k views, 4.5 likes

OnBuy Smart Watches discovered this TikTok tip from @kate_kozuch who shows us how useful Apple Maps can be. By setting your journey in the maps app, your Apple Watch will give you live updates and directions. It does this by displaying on the screen the right direction to head in live time, similarly to a SatNav in a car. It will also give you variations of vibration to indicate to you whether to turn left or right, meaning you don’t even need to look at your map.

8.) Tidying up your home screen

  • 60.8k views, 1.7k likes

Although simple, these 2 tips from @techoutadam can help your Apple Watch to run smoother with much less clutter. Firstly, by scrolling up to the very top of your notifications board, there is a ‘clear all’ option which gets rid of every notification you have not yet checked. Secondly, if you find yourself scrolling through apps or messages but want to go back to the top of the list, simply click the clock icon in the top right of the screen and it will take you to the top of whatever page you are currently on.

9.) Medical ID

  • 30.5k views, 1.3k likes

In the health app on your iPhone, you can set up something called your “medical ID”. This is where you can input all of your medical conditions, allergies or requirements. As shown here by @ellyawesometech, even if your phone is locked, holding down the power on and volume up button will trigger an emergency screen. This will also work using an Apple Watch if paired to your phone, whereas on your watch you just need to hold down the side button until the “emergency” screen appears. This will allow anybody to access your medical ID in the case of an emergency, potentially saving lives.

10.) SOS

  • 28k views, 2k likes

This simple setting could end up saving your life. There is a feature within your iPhone called ‘in case of emergency’ which can be located in the shortcuts app. You can add instructions such as sending a location coupled with sending an SOS text message to your loved ones or to the emergency services, as shown by @brendanstechtips in this video. This shortcut can also be used and applied to your Apple Watch device using the same method.
