Apple Watch Keyboard Input Notification

what is Apple Watch Keyboard Input? Getting a message on my iphone to "Enter text on Apple Watch using your iOS keyboard. Press to type." I don't know what this means. It started today and I get it every time I look at my phone.

This feature is used when you are typing a password, or something very long, so you can use your devices keyboard as a Apple Watch keyboard.


To disable this useful feature, go to notification settings, find “Apple Watch Keyboard”, and turn off “Allow Notifcations.”


Tell me of it works

I began having this issue today, after I used my watch to reply to a message. It seemed like the notification would occur about every 10 seconds or so. It wouldn't stop.


I saw on this thread that someone recommended turning off notifications of my apple watch.


I was about to do that, but there are some watch notifications I like to get.


I decided to restart my phone to see if that would work. It did not. Most likely because the notification originates from the watch.


So I did the next logical thing...I restarted my watch. BOOM!


Problem solved!


I hope this helps someone. :)

I had this problem of getting the notifications. I powered off my watch by pushing the round button and the button below it, at the same time and holding them. And then I pushed the round button again to turn it back on. I also noticed my watch was a little bit wet from washing my hands recently. So I tried to suck out any water that was in the buttons. Problem appears to be solved, I have not gotten a notification since.

That’s the point here, not what they are, but why are the notifications popping up all the time?


Clearly an Apple bug, hopefully it will be fixed soon & that starts with acknowledging it is a s/ware issue! I have same problem, notifications popping up on the phone all the time when not doing anything with my watch or even wearing it. Turning off notifications is a temporary solution not a real fix.


here’s hoping…
