Apple Watch is packed with features that go far beyond fitness tracking and notifications. While most users rely on it for checking messages, recording workouts, or monitoring heart rate, several practical tools remain tucked away inside menus that many people rarely visit.

Here are seven hidden Apple Watch features that are worth exploring. While these features are not new, they often remain overlooked because they are hidden inside menus or optional settings.
