与智能手机和平板电脑等移动设备相比,可穿戴设备的屏幕空间更小。有时,很难理解智能手表上的文字——尤其是对于老年人和视力相关疾病的人。
如果您必须眯着眼睛阅读Apple Watch上的文字,我们建议您使用隐藏的 watchOS Zoom功能。这使您可以放大或放大手表显示屏上的内容。在本教程中,我们将向您展示如何放大或缩小Apple Watch显示屏。
本文中的步骤适用于所有Apple Watch系列/型号,无论其 watchOS 版本如何。
激活 Apple Watch 的缩放功能(Zoom Functionality)
Zoom是 watchOS 中默认禁用的辅助功能。如果您想放大 Apple Watch 的屏幕,请启用该功能。
- 在Apple Watch(Apple Watch)上启动“设置”(Settings)应用并选择“辅助功能(Accessibility)” 。
- 点击“视觉”部分中的缩放(Zoom)。
- 切换缩放(Zoom)。
屏幕上的“已启用缩放”通知。等待(Wait)通知消失并继续下一步以调整缩放级别。
- Apple允许您自定义放大倍率,以便您的 Watch 显示屏不会放大到超过特定级别。点击最大缩放级别部分中的(Maximum Zoom Level)加(Plus)号或减号(Minus)图标以增加或减少缩放显示时您希望手表屏幕的自定义方式。
您还可以从 iOS 设备(仅限 iPhone)远程激活手表的显示缩放功能。确保Apple Watch 已与您的 iPhone 配对,(Apple Watch is paired to your iPhone)并按照以下说明进行操作。
打开 iPhone 上的Watch 应用程序(Watch app),转到我的手表(My Watch)选项卡,选择辅助功能(Accessibility),选择缩放(Zoom),然后打开缩放(Zoom)功能。
现在,您可以通过用两根手指双击屏幕来放大 Apple Watch 的显示屏。
向左或向右拖动最大缩放级别(Maximum Zoom Level)滑块以自定义缩放显示时希望手表屏幕的大小。
我们建议您在调整缩放级别的同时放大手表的显示屏 - 有关这些步骤,请参阅下一部分。这将让您了解手表显示屏在每个放大级别上的缩放程度。
注意:在(Note:)Apple Watch上启用缩放功能将同时激活Watch应用程序中的功能——只要您的手表和 iPhone 已配对。因此,您无需在 iPhone 上启用Zoom ,然后在手表上启用 Zoom。(Zoom)
(Activate Zoom)使用数码表冠(Digital Crown)激活变焦
watchOS 有一个“辅助功能快捷方式(Accessibility Shortcut)”,可让您为Digital Crown指定快捷方式。按照以下步骤启用辅助功能快捷方式(Accessibility Shortcut)并使用Digital Crown缩放手表的显示。
打开手表上的设置(Settings)应用程序,选择辅助功能(Accessibility),点击“其他”部分中的辅助功能快捷方式,然后选择(Accessibility Shortcut)缩放(Zoom)。
如果手表已与您的 iPhone 配对,请打开Watch 应用程序(Watch app),前往我的手表(My Watches)选项卡,然后选择辅助功能(Accessibility)。滚动到页面底部,选择辅助功能快捷方式(Accessibility Shortcut),然后选择缩放(Zoom)。
现在,您可以通过连按三次Digital Crown来激活 Apple Watch 的缩放功能。
如何放大 Apple Watch 的显示屏(Display)
要缩放手表的显示,用两根手指在屏幕上的任意位置点按两次。要进一步放大缩放显示,请在屏幕上双击两根手指并向上拖动。将(Drag)两根手指向下拖动屏幕以降低缩放级别。
当您放大手表的显示屏时,屏幕右上角会出现“缩放地图”。(Zoom Map)地图上的绿点显示(green dot)缩放(zoomed)显示的可见部分——即您在页面上的位置。
值得一提的是,您可以缩放Apple Watch上的任何页面,包括主屏幕(Home Screen)。
要在缩放的显示中移动,请将两根手指放在屏幕上并拖动(两根手指)以导航屏幕。导航方法称为“平移(Panning)”。
您还可以使用手表的Digital Crown来导航缩放显示。向下滚动Digital Crown以向上移动屏幕,或向上滚动以向下移动手表的显示屏。
要使用Digital Crown垂直滚动缩放显示,请用两根手指点击屏幕。这将禁用缩放地图并切换到不同的导航样式。
之后(Afterward),滚动Digital Crown以在屏幕上上下移动。用两根手指点按屏幕以恢复缩放地图(Zoom Map)。
如何缩小Apple Watch 显示屏(Apple Watch Display)
将Apple Watch(Apple Watch)上的缩放显示恢复为常规尺寸也非常简单。您需要做的就是用两根手指双击屏幕。尽管这会缩小手表的显示,但缩放(Zoom)功能仍处于启用状态。
如果您经常通过两指轻敲手势意外放大手表的屏幕,请禁用显示缩放功能。继续下一部分,了解如何关闭Apple Watch上的缩放功能。
禁用 Apple Watch 缩放
您可以从手表的设置菜单、iPhone 上的Apple Watch(Apple Watch)应用程序或通过三次单击Digital Crown关闭显示缩放。
1. 禁用 Apple Watch 上的缩放(1. Disable Zoom on Your Apple Watch)
打开手表上的设置应用程序,点击(Settings app)辅助功能(Accessibility),选择缩放(Zoom),然后关闭缩放(Zoom)。
2. 禁用 iPhone 上的缩放(2. Disable Zoom on Your iPhone)
在 iPhone 上启动Watch 应用(Watch app),选择辅助功能(Accessibility),点击缩放(Zoom),然后关闭缩放(Zoom)。
请注意,如果您已经在手表上禁用了缩放功能,则不必禁用iPhone 上的缩放(Zoom)功能,反之亦然。
3. 使用数码变焦禁用变焦(3. Disable Zoom using the Digital Zoom)
如果Apple Watch(Apple Watch)的“辅助功能快捷方式(Accessibility Shortcut)”分配了缩放功能,您可以禁用 Apple Watch 上的缩放功能。三击数码表冠(Digital Crown)将禁用手表的缩放功能,并在屏幕上显示“Zoom Disabled”消息。
获得更大更好的视野
尽管缩放功能在Apple Watch(Apple Watch)上非常易于使用和设置,但我们在测试设备上缩放显示时遇到了一些问题。有时,即使增加缩放级别,放大倍数也不会变大。我们能够通过启用和重新启用缩放(Zoom)功能来解决此问题。在某些情况下,我们不得不重启Apple Watch。
如果遇到类似问题,请重新启用缩放或重启手表。如果问题仍然存在,请将您的 Apple Watch 更新(Update your Apple Watch)到最新版本或将手表恢复为出厂设置。(reset the watch to factory settings)

If you have to squint to read text on your Apple Watch, we recommend using the hidden watchOS Zoom functionality. This allows you to magnify or enlarge content on your watch’s display. In this tutorial, we’ll show you how to zoom in or out on the Apple Watch display.
The steps in this article will work on all Apple Watch series/models, irrespective of their watchOS version.
Activate Apple Watch’s Zoom Functionality
Zoom is an accessibility feature that’s disabled by default in watchOS. Enable the feature if you want to enlarge your Apple Watch’s screen.
- Launch the Settings app on your Apple Watch and select Accessibility.
- Tap Zoom in the “Vision” section.
- Toggle on Zoom.
A “Zoom Enabled” notification on the screen. Wait for the notification to fade and proceed to the next step to adjust the zoom level.
- Apple lets you customize the magnification so that your Watch’s display doesn’t get zoomed past a specific level. Tap the Plus or Minus icon in the Maximum Zoom Level section to increase or decrease the customize how you want the watch’s screen when you zoom the display.
You can also remotely activate your watch’s display zoom functionality from an iOS device (iPhone only). Ensure the Apple Watch is paired to your iPhone and follow the instructions below.
Open the Watch app on your iPhone, go to the My Watch tab, select Accessibility, select Zoom, and toggle on the Zoom feature.
Now you can zoom in on your Apple Watch’s display by double-tapping the screen with two fingers.
Drag the Maximum Zoom Level slider left or right to customize how big you want the watch’s screen when you zoom the display.
We recommend zooming in your watch’s display while adjusting the zoom level—see the next section for these steps. That’ll give an idea of how zoomed your watch’s display will look on each magnification level.
Note: Enabling zoom on your Apple Watch will simultaneously activate the feature in the Watch app—as long as your watch and iPhone are paired. So you don’t need to enable Zoom on your iPhone after doing so on your watch.
Activate Zoom Using the Digital Crown
The watchOS has an “Accessibility Shortcut” that lets you assign a shortcut to the Digital Crown. Follow the steps below to enable Accessibility Shortcut and use the Digital Crown to zoom your watch’s display.
Open the Settings app on your watch, select Accessibility, tap Accessibility Shortcut in the “Other” section, and select Zoom.
If the watch is paired to your iPhone, open the Watch app, head to the My Watches tab, and select Accessibility. Scroll to the bottom of the page, select Accessibility Shortcut, and select Zoom.
Now you activate your Apple Watch’s zoom functionality by triple-clicking the Digital Crown.
How To Zoom In on Apple Watch’s Display
To zoom your Watch’s display, double-tap anywhere on the screen with two fingers. To further enlarge a zoomed display, double-tap two fingers on the screen and drag up both fingers. Drag both fingers down the screen to reduce the zoom level.
When you magnify your watch’s display, a “Zoom Map” shows up in the top-right corner of the screen. The green dot on the map shows the visible section of the zoomed display—i.e. where you are on the page.
It’s worth mentioning that you can zoom any page on your Apple Watch, including the Home Screen.
To move around a zoomed display, place two fingers on the screen and drag (both fingers) to navigate the screen. The navigation method is known as “Panning.”
You can also use your watch’s Digital Crown to navigate a zoomed display. Scroll the Digital Crown downwards to move the screen up or scroll upwards to move down your watch’s display.
To use the Digital Crown to scroll vertically through a zoomed display, tap the screen with two fingers. That’ll disable the zoom map and switch to a different navigation style.
Afterward, scroll the Digital Crown to move up or down the screen. Tap the screen with two fingers to bring back the Zoom Map.
How To Zoom Out on an Apple Watch Display
Reverting a zoomed display to regular size on your Apple Watch is also super easy. All you need to do is double-tap the screen with two fingers. Although that will zoom out your watch’s display, the Zoom functionality remains enabled.
Disable the display zoom feature if you often magnify your watch’s screen by accident with a two-finger tap gesture. Proceed to the next section to learn how to turn off the zoom feature on your Apple Watch.
Disable Apple Watch Zoom
You can turn off display zoom from your watch’s settings menu, the Apple Watch app on your iPhone, or by triple-clicking the Digital Crown.
1. Disable Zoom on Your Apple Watch
Open the Settings app on your watch, tap Accessibility, select Zoom, and toggle off Zoom.
2. Disable Zoom on Your iPhone
Launch the Watch app on your iPhone, select Accessibility, tap Zoom, and toggle off Zoom.
Note that you don’t have to disable Zoom on your iPhone if you already did that on your watch—and vice versa.
3. Disable Zoom using the Digital Zoom
You can disable zoom on your Apple Watch if its Accessibility Shortcut is assigned the zoom functionality. Triple-clicking the Digital Crown will disable your watch’s zoom and display a “Zoom Disabled” message on the screen.
Get a Bigger and Better View
Although the zoom functionality is pretty easy to use and set up on Apple Watch, we encountered a few issues zooming the display on our test device. Sometimes, the magnification size didn’t get bigger even after increasing the zoom level. We were able to fix this by enabling and re-enabling the Zoom feature. In some cases, we had to restart the Apple Watch.
If you encounter a similar problem, re-enable zoom or restart your watch. Update your Apple Watch to the latest version or reset the watch to factory settings if the problem persists.
