Location of find my phone and theater mode

Where did this screen go. It was a quick way to put watch on water mode, to silence, find my iPhone etc…?

On watchOS 10, press the side button to open the control panel. The button. Not the digital crown; the knob.


There’s no need to manually engage the water lock. The watch will detect that itself, and lock the touch screen controls. The water lock does not change the inherent water resistance (or lack thereof), the control disables the controls, and ejects water from the speaker cavity when the water lock is manually disabled.


To disable the water lock on watchOS 10, press and hold the digital crown; the knob.
