Learning about Apple Watch’s Parts

      Okay, you’re all geared up to test-drive all that Apple Watch can do, but if you’re using it for the first time, you may not even know all the parts of the watch and what they do.

      Fair enough. In this section, you discover the basics of the hardware itself. I start with a look at the various parts of the watch on the outside and what they do.

      Watch face

      Regardless of which size you opted to go with — 41 mm or 45 mm (referring to vertical height) — the Apple Watch face is entirely digital, so you won’t find any buttons of any kind. Use your fingertip to move the icon bubbles, and tap an app to launch it. You can also tap, press, and swipe inside an app to perform a task.

      

You don’t need to press hard on these buttons or on the watch face. You want to minimize wear and tear on your new (and pricey!) gadget. Just a simple press on the buttons and watch face will do. And although Apple Watch Series 2 and newer are waterproof, try to avoid touching the screen and buttons with wet or damp hands. (Apple says, “We recommend not exposing Apple Watch to soaps, shampoos, conditioners, lotions, and perfumes as they can negatively affect water seals and acoustic membranes.”) See Chapter 3 for more on these buttons and using your fingers with your Apple Watch.

      Digital Crown button

Seasoned watch owners are familiar with the small rotary dial on a watch’s right side (left-handed people may flip the watch around so it’s on the left side), which is used to wind the watch (an old-school one, anyway) or set the time. Apple Watch has one too, called the Digital Crown shown in Figure 1-10. It's both a button and a dial, so it can be pressed, tapped, or turned forward or backward, with each change resulting in a different action. See Chapter 3 for more on what the Digital Crown button can do.

      Side button

      Along the side of the watch is a long button called the side button (how imaginative!), as shown in Figure 1-10 earlier in this chapter. From the Home screen and in any app, press this button to pull up your Dock (more on this later). Press and hold the side button to use SOS; double-click
