Hello Lois and thank you for your suggestion. I have that particular settings switched to Custom whereupon I subsequently disabled all alerts. However, I continue to receive text messages.
Perhaps you could change your setting, thustly, to confirm my finding? Again, thank you, Mark -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Lois Butterfield Sent: Tuesday, July 04, 2017 12:02 AM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Mark's New Apple Watch with One Big Question Hi Mark, On you phone in the watch app, under messages are two choices. One is mirror my IPhone, and the other is custom. I have mine set to the first and haven't tried custom, but I have a feeling that might fix that particular problem. Take care, Lois -----Original Message----- From: M. Taylor Sent: Tuesday, July 04, 2017 2:23 AM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Mark's New Apple Watch with One Big Question Hello Everyone, I just got a new Apple Watch, today. So far, so good. I successfully updated the software and began experimenting with the various aspects of the device. I have one luming question: I absolutely do not want any iMessages being pushed to the watch. How can I stop this from happening. Just so you know, I went into the watch app, on iPhone, and disabled Message notifications but, still, every time I wake the device, I see the new message I received on iPHone. Oh, one more thing, is there a way to prevent the device from syncing info from iPhone? I expect to use this device more like a watch and a fitness tracker than a communications tool. I do not expect to lookup contacts, calendar appointments, etc, at this time. All replies welcome and thank you.
