Watch OS 10 Dock/app switcher broken
I have used the app switcher/dock on my watch to switch between 3 or 4 apps I like to use. Now on WatchOS 10, I can’t do that. Am I missing something or is it broken?

This was the most ridiculous change! I use that functionality all day everyday to get to my Authenticator apps double-clicking the crown is horrible way to get there. Also I never use the control center!!!! Please fix this Apple!

It is beyond me that Apple would remove one of the major features of the watch. The dock allowed the User to add a physical shortcut to their most used apps as opposed to having to scroll through the list of useless kiddie apps that are standard. As a business person I need to quickly access all major forms of communication tools without delay. They need to add this function back or lose the race to Google.
WatchOS 10 changes some behaviors, so pressing the side button now opens Control Center instead of the app dock. Double pressing the Digital Crown now opens the Recent App Dock.
Apple did eliminate being able to add your favorite apps to show in the dock.
Hope that helps,
I’ve contacted them every way one can just venting…
