If you find the stand reminders on your Apple Watch to be a bit nagging or if you have specific reasons for turning them off, you’re in luck! The process to disable these reminders is quite simple and can be done in just a few taps on your device.
First, navigate to the Home screen on your Apple Watch by pressing the Digital Crown until you see the app layout.
Next, locate and tap on the “Settings” app icon, which resembles a gear. This will open the Settings menu where you can customize various aspects of your Apple Watch.
Scroll down the Settings menu until you find the “Activity” option. Tap on it to access the Activity settings, which includes options related to your daily movement goals and reminders.
Within the Activity settings, look for the “Stand Reminders” option. This is where you can manage and adjust the settings related to the reminders prompting you to stand up and move around.
Once you locate the “Stand Reminders” option, you will see a toggle switch next to it. Simply tap on the toggle switch to turn off the stand reminders on your Apple Watch.
After disabling the stand reminders, you should no longer receive notifications or prompts reminding you to stand up periodically throughout the day.
If at any point you decide to re-enable the stand reminders, you can follow the same steps outlined above and toggle the switch back on to resume receiving the notifications.
It’s important to note that by turning off stand reminders, you may miss out on the gentle nudges to get up and move around, which can contribute to your overall health and well-being.
Consider your daily routine and activity levels when deciding whether to keep the stand reminders enabled or disabled on your Apple Watch.
Remember that maintaining an active lifestyle and incorporating movement breaks throughout the day is key to improving your overall health and preventing sedentary behavior.
