Understanding "going back" on your Apple Watch Ultra typically refers to navigating the interface, either returning to the main watch face or switching back to a recently used app. The primary tool for this navigation is the Digital Crown.
Here are the common ways to navigate "back" using the Digital Crown:
Returning to the Watch Face or Home Screen
The quickest way to get back to your main display, showing your watch face and complications or the app icons on the Home Screen, is by pressing the Digital Crown.
- Action: Press the Digital Crown once.
- Result: You will immediately return to the watch face or the Home Screen, depending on your current view and settings.
This is useful when you're deep inside an app and want to quickly see the time or access your core apps.
Returning to the Last Used App
Sometimes, you just want to toggle between your current app and the one you were using just before. Your Apple Watch Ultra keeps track of your most recent activity.
- Action: Double-click the Digital Crown.
- Result: You will return to the last app you were using.
According to the reference, you can double-click the Digital Crown to return to the last app. This is a handy shortcut for switching back and forth between two apps.
