How to Set Up and Manage **tifications on Apple Watch [iOS Blog]

One of the Apple Watch's most important features is the ability to keep you connected to your **tifications without needing to have your iPhone in your hand or even in your pocket all of the time. I often miss important text messages because my iPhone is too far away from me to hear my alerts.

But with Apple Watch, all of your **tifications are at your fingertips, as if someone is next to you, tapping you on the wrist whenever you get an alert. We've got a tutorial for you today that will explain how to set up and Manage **tifications so that you get the alerts you want and aren't distracted by the ones you don't want.

**tifications on Apple Watch are actually mirrored from your iPhone by default, so any app you have **tifications enabled for on your iPhone will also appear on your Apple Watch. To make sure you don't miss any **tifications, you can turn on a **tification Indicator that will display a red dot on your Watch face if you have unread **tifications.

Enable compatible apps on your iPhone via **tification Center that you want to receive alerts for. It is likely these apps are already enabled on your iPhone, but it is a good idea to check on them.
Open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone.
Tap the My Watch tab.
Select **tifications from the menu list.
Toggle **tification Indicator to the On position.
You can also set your **tifications to private so that it requires you to tap the screen in order to see it.
