You can control the watch via the touch screen and the button on the side which brings up the menu. You can scroll up and down in the usual way by swiping. Due to the small size of the screen, tapping the items takes a little finesse.

The menu displays many watch features such as health and fitness, weather, music, alarm, calendar and settings. Many other features like compass, cycle tracking, stopwatch and countdown, phone search and remote camera control are available by tapping “More”. Swiping right will take you back one page.

You can swipe left and right to access various widgets on the home screen. Swipe left and you can see tiles that expand on today’s activities, your current heart rate, weather, Alexa shortcuts, and sleep data. These widgets can be customized. Swipe down and you can access a menu that includes sleep mode, flashlight and a few other features – swipe up and you can see your notifications. Nothing new, basically.

You can customize your home screen with some free and many paid clock faces. The standard face shows a lot of information at a glance, such as time and date, activity rings, steps and calories, heart rate, battery status and weather. The watch also has its own app store where you can download free and paid apps to extend the uses of the watch.
