That's right. You got it.

when i unlock Unlock your iPhone with Apple Watch when you're wearing a face mask

Yes, I have this feedback - feel a haptic feedback and to see an alert after your watch is unlocked.


When not wearing a mask and using your iPhone to lock or unlock the Apple Watch, tactile feedback. I do not feel.

But without a mask there has always been tactile feedback. has this been removed? very grateful for updating me

corradoguerzoni,


Just to clarify, are you referring to the feature where you can Unlock your iPhone with Apple Watch when you're wearing a face mask? If so, it would be expected to feel a haptic feedback and to see an alert after your watch is unlocked. Are you trying to unlock you Apple Watch while wearing a mask?


If you're not wearing a mask and using your iPhone to Lock or unlock Apple Watch, a haptic feedback would not be expected.


Are both devices updated to the latest iOS and watchOS? If not, back up and update your Apple Watch and the paired iPhone. Refer to these resources to learn how to update the software:

Have a nice day.

Hello corradoguerzoni,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities!


It sounds like you’d like to manage the haptic feedback on your Apple Watch. We’d be happy to help.


Take a look at the information in Change the audio and notification settings on your Apple Watch. You can control the haptic feedback settings on your Apple Watch and in Apple Watch app on your iPhone.


Take care.
