The watchOS 7 update was recently released to all users. The update includes some useful features, including sleep tracking, handwashing guidance, new workout programs, and more.

The areas of health and fitness are the main beneficiaries of watchOS 7. The Workouts app has been updated with new dance workouts and improved calorie counting. The Activities app has been redesigned and renamed “Fitness.” But a particularly cool feature is the sharing of watch faces. This means that users will be able to exchange their personalized watch faces with friends in the future. But there are also smaller innovationsthat are not immediately noticeable, including in the control center. As on the iPhone, this offers access to Wi-Fi, airplane mode and more. With watchOS 7, users can design the control center themselves and hide tiles for the first time. Since the control center on the Apple Watch is getting more options every year, hiding the tiles can't do any harm. Previously, it was only possible to rearrange them.

watchOS 7: How to hide the tiles in the Control Center

Like so many things, hiding the tiles in Control Center is very easy. To do so, swipe up from the bottom of the screen to open Control Center. If you're still in an app, exit it first. Once Control Center is open, scroll down and tap "Edit."

Now you can manage the individual icons. This means you can rearrange them, hide them or show them. There is one exception, however.

Tiles such as airplane mode, Wi-Fi, the battery indicator and mobile network cannot be removed. The new watchOS 7 update supports all Apple Watch models from Series 3 onwards. You don't have an Apple Watch yet? Then take a look at our Amazon Storefront There you will find some of the Apple Watch Series 3, 4, 5, 6 and SE models and more. (Photo by ms_pics_and_more / Bigstockphoto)
