How to turn on private notifications on apple watch

One of the main strengths of the Apple Watch is the possibility of receiving the same notifications (or personalized notifications) that are also shown on our iPhone on the watch. In this way, and at a quick glance, we can find out whether or not it is worth taking the smartphone out of your pocket. However, in certain circumstances such as a work meeting or a meeting of friends, those notices can be seen by the most prying eyes. Today we will see how to activate private notifications on Apple Watch so that we, and only we, can see them.

Private notifications - out of everyone's sight

In a similar way to the iPhone, the Apple Watch is also capable of adopting the function of private notifications to ensure that no one displays the information we receive on the small screen of our smart watch. It is something that we can activate very simply and quickly, since it hardly requires a couple of caps in the configuration.

Thanks to private notifications, instead of these notifications appearing directly on the Apple Watch screen, we can only see the source of the notification and the name, while its content will remain hidden until the moment we click on said notification to visualize it.

To activate this privacy of notifications we just have to follow the following steps:

1. Open the Clock application on your iPhone Click on the Notifications section. Click on the slider next to Private notifications to enable the function.

Under it, the company itself tells us what it is: "If this option is activated, the details of the notifications will only appear when you press the notice."

That easy. Now, when you receive a notification on your watch, you will have to press the screen so that the information and details of said notification expand. The initial notification will only be displayed with the corresponding app icon followed by the source, rather than the full content.
