WOULDN’T IT BE great if your Apple Watch changed its face at a particular time, such as when you arrived or left work, at sunset, or on Tuesdays? With Shortcuts for iPhone you can get it to do just that.
The Shortcuts app enables you to create handy automations, which means apps will do specific things when certain criteria are met. And this includes the Watch app for your Apple Watch.
In this tutorial, we’ll keep it simple by setting a daytime face and an evening face. But you can use exactly the same tools to set different triggers, such as changing the face when it’s time to leave for work or college or when you arrive at the gym. And, as we’ll discover, it’s really easy to make your Apple Watch do exactly what you’d like it to.
