Personalize your Apple device
In recent years, Apple has increasingly focused on personalizing your device. For example, it is now possible to add widgets to your iPhone and since iOS 16 you can completely design the lock screen as you wish. Apple is therefore giving you more and more room to choose your own preferences.
This is no different with the Apple Watch: with the watch it is possible to choose your own watch face and set it up the way you want. However, a number of functions are still quite hidden, so with this hidden function it is possible to add even more colors to your Apple Watch. iPhoned explains how to do this.
Add more color to your Apple Watch face
When choosing a clock face, you decide whether you want an analog clock or a modular clock face. To set the Apple Watch to your own preference, it is possible to adjust the color of the letters and numbers on the screen. And that’s not the only thing: you can also change the shade of this color. This genius feature is so well hidden that hardly anyone knows about it.
Do you want to customize the colors of your Apple Watch? Here’s how to find the hidden feature:
- Tap and hold the watch face;
- Go to ‘Edit’ or create a new watch face;
- Swipe left to adjust the color of the screen;
- Scroll with the Digital Crown to the color you want to choose;
- Then tap on the colored ball on the right;
- Then set the color tone with the Digital Crown.
It is important to mention that Apple divides the colors in the menu into two categories, which can be seen by the small line on the right side between the colored dots. The colors above this line can be adjusted with the step-by-step plan above, the colors below the line cannot.
Also nice to know: if you go all the way down in the color menu with the Digital Crown, you can add more colors. With this function on your Apple Watch you can choose from even more colors, so that your favorite color is sure to be among them.
