Here\u2019s how you can have your Apple Watch tap out the time using a simple gesture.<\/p>\n<p>Apple Watch comes with a feature called Taptic Time. It can read you the time using haptic feedback on your wrist. Once it\u2019s enabled, all you have to do is wake up the watch (by lifting your wrist or by tapping the screen), then tap and hold the watch face with two fingers.<\/p>\n<p>The Taptic Time feature comes with three different vibration modes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Digits<\/strong>: This mode alternates between long taps and short taps. A long tap for ten hours, short taps for each following hour, long taps for each ten-minute interval, and short taps for each following minute.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Terse<\/strong>: The Terse mode features a long tap for every five hours, short taps for every following hour, and long taps for each quarter of an hour.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Morse Code<\/strong>: If you\u2019re a fan of Morse code, you can use this mode to tap out the time in Morse code.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>To set up this feature, press the Digital Crown on your Apple Watch and tap the \u201cSettings\u201d app.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-695444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Open-Settings-App-on-Apple-Watch.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"300\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Here, select the \u201cClock\u201d option.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s important to note that this feature won\u2019t work if your Apple Watch is set to speak the time. So first, tap the toggle next to the \u201cSpeak Time\u201d option to disable the feature.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>How to Silence Your Apple Watch<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, you can use both the Speak Time and Taptic Time features together. When your Watch is in silent mode, it will tap out the time. When it\u2019s not in silent mode, it will speak the time instead.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-708085\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Disable-Speak-Time-Feature-on-Apple-Watch.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"300\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>To set up the Taptic Time feature, scroll up in the \u201cClock\u201d menu and choose the \u201cTaptic Time\u201d option.<\/p>\n<p>Tap the toggle next to Taptic Time to enable the feature.
