How to adjust the vibration on your Apple Watch

Macworld The Apple Watch can vibrate to let you now about a notification. But you might find that the vibration isnt strong enough for you to notice. Or, you might want to disable vibrations completely. Apple offers three vibration settings: Off , Standard , and Distinct . If youve bought an Apple Watch and never changed this setting, Standard is the default. There are two ways to adjust it: directly on your Apple Watch or in the Watch app on your paired iPhone. To adjust the vibration on the Apple Watch, go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics > Haptics . To adjust the Apple Watch vibration in the Watch app on your iPhone, open the Watch app and got to My Watch > Sounds & Haptics > Haptics . Select the option you want from the list there. Off turns off vibration for notifications completely. Standard makes the Apple Watch vibrate twice. Distinctive makes it vibrate once for a long time and then twice briefly. This setting only adjusts the vibration for notifications. There are also two other, less noticeable types of vibration: that of the Digital Crown and system haptics. Both are simply used to provide feedback when operating the Apple Watch. While the Digital Crowns vibration is largely self-explanatory, system haptics generally serve to confirm various interactions with the Apple Watch. For example, when you use the double-tap and wrist gestures, the Apple Watch vibrates to confirm. You cannot customize these two types of vibration; you can only switch them on or off. They can be found under Settings > Sounds & Haptics or My Watch > Sounds & Haptics in the System Sounds & Haptics section at the bottom of the list. To disable the Digital Crown vibration, toggle the switch under Haptics (Crown) ; to disable system haptics, toggle the switch under System Haptics .
