I have a Series 8 Watch, and prior to iOS 10, the double pinch option would dismiss a notification.
After downloading ios10, the option has changed to “go back one screen”.
How do I get the option to dismiss the notification with a double pinch, back?
Its quite frustrating that the instructions on the Watch still have Dismiss - double pinch, but the action doesn’t match.
Any thoughts?
Thanks for posting in the Apple Support Communities Bobzone,
If you're finding that a double-pinch gesture goes back one screen, you may have AssistiveTouch enabled as outlined here: Use AssistiveTouch on your Apple Watch. See below:
"Move back one item: Double pinch (Tap your pointer finger to your thumb twice quickly)"
You can use this guidance to double-check to see if it's on, and to turn it off if you wish:
