Hi


To customise alerts for Messages, on your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch (tab) > Messages:


  • Choose Custom.
  • Under "Alerts", enable each of Show Alerts and Haptic.
  • Turn off Sound.


To customise alerts for emails, on your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch > Mail:


  • Choose Custom.
  • Under "Alerts", enable Show Alerts.
  • Tap on an account (for example, iCloud or VIPs) > enable Show Alerts and Haptic, turn off Sound.
