    I downloaded the beta the second I was made aware that they added it back.

    This sucks. I’m going to have to delete all of my watch faces again so that my watch face doesn’t change every time I touch it all because someone can’t tap the face for a half a second without crying.

    I hope this can be disabled. I HATED the accidental face swaps I always got.

    This was one of the few WatchOS changes I actually liked, but it’s great they’re giving people the option back. I’d really like swipe up for control centre (I couldn’t care less about the widgets) and the old design of the Activity app!

    I hope this is true. The new way of switching is worse and having the option to turn the swipe back on should have always been there

      It is optional. It’s a toggle under Settings -> Clock.

    I am staying on the previous OS Build. I am never going to downgrade to that inferior version.

    Did people actually miss that? I found swipe to change faces was awful because it meant it could happen inadvertently. It’s much better to just press and hold to then swap between them.

    The option to swap swipe up and button functions back would have been a much better qol fix.

    Changing the watch face is more difficult now than it was in the past. To change the watch face on an Apple Watch, you have to long-press the display and then swipe or rotate the digital crown.

    I’m just imagining some apple bro sobbing while trying to hold down the face for 2 seconds, and how miserable their life is that they now have to do that extra step.
