Side Swipe Control Tips

The Side Swipe™ control is a touch-sensitive area on the side of the watch body, which allows you to scroll through lists and menus and adjust some field values without obscuring the touchscreen. This feature can help you to quickly navigate menus by using one finger to scroll and another to select items on the touchscreen.

  • Slide up or down on the Side Swipe control to scroll through widgets, menus, and lists.
  • When a field with + and - buttons appears, such as volume or brightness, slide up or down to increase or decrease the value in the field.
  • Customize the scrolling direction of the Side Swipe control and the watch orientation in the system settings (System Settings).

    To operate the Side Swipe control using your thumb, you should wear the watch with the key facing toward your wrist. To use your index finger, you should wear the watch with the key facing away from your wrist.
