Control iPhone ringing on Apple watch

I was at a play today and I silenced the ringer on my phone. During the play a call came in and my phone did not ring but my watch did. How do I set it so it won’t ring when I turn off the phone ringer? Or, do I have to do something to my watch as well as my phone?

Theater 🎭 mode


watchOS 9, swipe up and tap the 🎭 icon


watchOS 10, a quick press and release of the flat oval side button, and tap the 🎭 icon.


It is possible to create a Focus on your iPhone that mirrors on your Apple Watch to suppress ringing on both devices.
