Lost Watch OS27 Functionality

Lost Watch OS27 Functionality


  1. The ability to double press the crown and remove/close apps is no longer available. How do I make this happen?
  2. The ability swipe away notifications is gone, how to get this back?


How do I ensure all AI is shut off and not turned on in the background?
