What are your thoughts on the new watchOS 10? So far it seems OK to me, but I am missing the edge-to-edge screen swiping to change watch faces, why was this removed?

    I miss being able to switch between different faces by swiping left to right and right to left. Sometimes I wanted to hear Mickey say the time or see the phase of the moon or see the phase of the sun on the earth.

    Also missing the ability to switch between apps using the side button.

    Edit: just realized double tapping the crown does the latter.

        Thank you! Looks like they took a page out of the iPhone’s last iOS update and now it’s a semi-permanent change, not so easy to just swipe through them :/

        Going to check later and see if there’s a setting for that.

      Hmm, double clicking the crown used to jump back to the last open app. Not sure if they removed the ability to do that or changed the shortcut to something else? I used that all the time to flip between the timer and workout apps.
