I'm thinking about buying the new Apple iWatch 5 but apparently it has an always on display. Can this be turned off? I think I would find it really annoying to have it on all the time.

Apple Watch
From the following review:

...Since the moment Apple announced this feature I've had a lot of people asking me if you could turn it off, some for power reasons, some for privacy.
So, yes, you absolutely can. Just go into settings, brightness and display, and kill it any and every time you want to...

Yes,but on the other hand,in the exact same post it says “Only sleep no longer means the display turning off. Now it means the display staying on, but in ultra low power mode.” It is quite,idk... interpretable..
Yes, you can. Watch App -> Brightness & Text Size -> Always On
Other than shutting it down, you should be able to tap Theater Mode on your Control Panel.
Wait until the manual is released and then you will know.
I feel the same about this feature, nice to have bit sometimes i’d like to be able to turn of the screen..
So finnaly,is it TRUE or NOT???
According to that review (and they have had access to them) it is true. Did you click on the link that Bob posted and read the article?
OK, when your local Apple Store has the Series 5 in stock, you can go and play with it for yourself, and decide if it works the way you need.
My nearest Apple shop is a 3 hour round trip. Hence why I asked :/
Yea! Someone that actually has an Apple Watch! 😀
Thank you seeingred
For some reason when I toggled off “always on” my watch also stopped ringing for phone calls. Anyone else notice this?
Along with phone not ringing I do not get haptic notifications for text messages or activity.
Can you turn off Apple Watch 5 always-on display?
