How to enable Taptic Chimes on your Apple Watch

(Pocket-lint) – There’s a feature called Taptic Chimes on Apple Watch, which when enabled, will see the smartwatch alert you when a new hour has started.  The feature arrived with watchOS 6 and if your Apple Watch is on loud, you’ll hear a chime when a new hour begins, while when on silent you’ll get a vibration on your wrist to let you know.  Taptic Chimes isn’t on by default though so if you want to be alerted when a new hour has started, here is how you turn Chimes on, and how to customise them.

The Taptic Chimes feature is hidden within the Accessibility settings in the Watch app on your iPhone.
