The digital numbers on the watch face are so big they can't go all the way across. How do I adjust this?

So I have the watch set to a traditional analog setting with second/minute/hour hands, but after a short rest, the watch will revert to a digital image, green numbers with the green charging icon in the top left corner. The numbers in this format are too big, so they can't go all the way across. They look like this:


3

:09 PM


Its really annoying, and, of course, if I turn the watch landscape, it will all fit across 3:09PM, but that's not a permanent solution.

You're talking about the charging screen, aka Bedside mode. The watch is designed to charge in what you call landscape mode with the Digital Crown on the top edge so this display is correct. See https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MU9F2AM/A/apple-watch-magnetic-charging-dock for an illustration


If you think the display could be better designed please feel free to submit product feedback at https://www.apple.com/feedback/
