Notifications

Of the Apple Watch’s many features, I take advantage of notifications the most. When a text message, Twitter reply, bank card alert, or other notification arrives , it appears on my watch; in fact, my iPhone, asleep in my pocket, doesn’t chime or vibrate. (Conversely, if you’re actively using the iPhone, notifications don’t appear on the watch.) This is the heart of the watch’s interaction: you can quickly, and discreetly if needed, check a notification on your wrist without pulling out the iPhone.

**①** Several types of notifications appear on the watch, identified by the app name and icon at the top.
