Cinema mode / Theatre Mode Apple watch

Your Apple Watch and iPhone can be configured such that enabling Do Not Disturb mode (as opposed to Theatre Mode) on one device also enables it on the other:

On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch (tab) > General > Do Not Disturb - turn on / off Mirror iPhone, as desired.

For future reference, note that Apple advises that you should not force restart either your Apple Watch or your iPhone unless that device is unresponsive and cannot be restarted normally:

• Restart your Apple Watch - Apple Support
• Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Hi

Enabling Theatre Mode on Apple Watch does not also enable an equivalent mode on the paired iPhone:

If you would like to send feedback or suggestions to Apple, then you can do so here:

According to the Apple Watch User Guide when Theater Mode is turned on, Apple Watch is silenced and its display won’t light up when you raise your wrist.

Try to force restart your iPhone & Watch.

As I hoped to explain in my previous reply, Theatre Mode is not mirrored between Apple Watch and iPhone.

Force restarting either or both devices will not alter this.

Sorry, I didn't realize (as JonathanUK did) that you were talking about the iPhone, not the watch.
