My Apple Watch keeps announcing time when I lift my arm up. It’s annoying. What can I do to stop it.

You can disable the feature that causes your Apple Watch to announce the time when you lift your arm. Here are the steps to turn off this feature:

On your iPhone, open the Watch app.
Tap the My Watch tab.
Tap Clock, then tap Announce Time.
Turn off the switch for Announce Time.

Alternatively, you can change the "tap to speak time" on watch itself

On your Apple Watch, open the Settings app.
Tap Clock, then tap Announce Time
Turn off the switch for Announce Time

With this feature turned off, your Apple Watch will no longer announce the time when you lift your arm.
