Q: Dictate messages on Apple Watch 2

can I dictate my Apple Watch 2 to "send message" (without touching the screen) after I have dictated the message? I've tried saying "send message" but it just types it out.

Apple Watch Series 2

A:

Yes, when you say, "Send message to John Doe"...then continue right on with your message, it will show you a preview of your message.  If you're happy with it, you're done.  If not, you can click "don't send."

    Hi

     

    Yes - to send a message without touching the screen:

     

    • Raise your wrist > use Siri (hey Siri, send a message to <whom> saying <what>) > when you have finished dictating, review the message and then lower your wrist to send it.

    Thank you! I usually reply to the messages through the message app using dictation but from your answer it sounds like I should go through Siri Instead. thanks again!
