Tech Friday: Embarrassed to mention a simple Apple Watch fix
Posted By RichC on May 1, 2026
For over a year, my Apple Watch occasionally changes the look of the face and created a frustrating restart “fix” for me. Over our beach walks this winter, I noticed that it was happening a bit more often — which starting me thinking that it might be my jacket sleeve or bumping my 
arm into Brenda.
Finally I did a little more digging into the problem, looking for software updates or reported issues causing the screen to balloon to a large size. Eventually I stumbled on the two-finger toggle and realized that I could have just two-fingered tap of the watch display to return to the normal size.
Since I’ve never used the setting, 
it was a no-brainer just to toggle it off. What a simple fix. DUH!
