What’s the Ping Button on Apple Watch?
Your Apple Watch is the perfect tool to find your iPhone when it disappears. Located in the Apple Watch Control Center, there’s a Ping button that makes your iPhone ring and flash, so you can find it faster. You can even customize your Apple Watch Control Center to make sure you always have the Ping button ready when you need it the most.
This feature is available on all the every Apple Watch model, and you’ll be able to use it as long for as your iPhone and Apple Watch are paired.
How to Ping Your iPhone With Your Apple Watch
If you can’t find your iPhone, all you need to do is ping it. This is how:
Swipe up from your watch face to open the Control Center on your Apple Watch. Scroll to find the Ping button. This is the button that looks like an iPhone with a couple of lines on each side. Tap the Ping button.
Your iPhone will ping audibly once, so you can find it. If you don’t find it after the ping is done, you can tap the button as many times as you need.
How to Make your iPhone Ping and Flash with your Apple Watch
If you still can’t find your iPhone with a ping, or if it’s too late at night to see anything, you can make your iPhone ping and flash with your Apple Watch like this:
Swipe up from your watch face to open the Control Center on your Apple Watch. Scroll to find the Ping button. This is the button that looks like an iPhone with a couple of lines on each side. Tap and hold the Ping button.
Now your iPhone will start to ping and flash, so it’s easier to find. You can press and hold the Ping iPhone button again if you still haven’t found it.
Never Lose Your iPhone Again
This is just one of the ways you can use your Apple Watch to make your life easier. Now you’ll never lose your iPhone again…hopefully. This isn’t the only way your Apple Watch can make your life easier, either!
