How to Close Apps on Apple Watch in watchOS 8

 

While it may not be obvious how to close or force quit apps on the Apple Watch, watchOS 8 makes it easy with just a few button presses — here's how to do it.


Even though there's not much reason to close an app on your Apple Watch unless a cloud service that the app relies on is nonresponsive, the process is simple enough to do.

  2. When the list of open apps appears, swipe to the left on the app you wish to close

  3. Tap the Close App icon that appears


The Side Button is the oblong, slightly raised button just below the round, raised Digital Crown.


Occasionally, you might find that you have issues with an Apple Watch freezing or behaving incorrectly. In these cases, you'll want to force-quit the app, rather than just closing it following the methods listed above.
