Hello Scott 1234,
The type of Apple Watch you use will depend on what settings are available. Learn more here: Turn on and wake Apple Watch.
Always On
On a compatible Apple Watch, Always On lets your watch display the watch face and time, even when your wrist is down. When you raise your wrist, Apple Watch functions fully.
Note: When your Apple Watch is in Low Power Mode, Always On is turned off. To see the watch face, tap the display.
Always On is available on Apple Watch Series 5, Apple Watch Series 6, Apple Watch Series 7, and Apple Watch Series 8.
1. Open the Settings appon your Apple Watch.
2. Tap Display & Brightness, then tap Always On.
3. Turn on Always On, then tap the following options to configure them:
• Show Complication Data: Choose the complications that show data when your wrist is down.
• Show Notifications: Choose the notifications that are visible when your wrist is down.
• Show Apps: Choose the apps that are visible when your wrist is down.
We hope this information helps you out.
Cheers!
So, how can one disable the automatic dimming so that the display remains bright and readable no matter the wrist position or Watch position? It is not truly “always on” if it dims after a number of seconds or When the watch is in a certain position.
