How Do I Hide the Red Dot on My Apple Watch?
One way to clear the red dot from your Apple Watch is to open the Notification Center on your iPhone, but it’s possible to hide it directly from your wrist. Follow these instructions to temporarily turn off the notifications indicator on your Apple Watch:
Turn Off Notifications on Apple Watch via the iPhone’s Watch App
You can also turn off the feature completely if you don’t like seeing the red dot at all. When you follow these steps, you’ll still receive notifications on your Apple Watch, but you won’t see the indicator.
What Does the Red Dot on Apple Watch Mean?
The red dot on an Apple Watch screen appears when you have unread notifications and the Notification Indicator setting in the Watch app is active. It’s there in case you miss a tone or a vibration and want a visual reminder that you’ve received a text message or other alert.
