Restoring Sound on Apple Watch

To get sound back on your Apple Watch, you’ll need to open the Settings app on your watch. Scroll down and select Sounds & Haptics. Then, tap the volume down button to decrease the volume or tap the volume up button to increase it. You can also use the slider and turn the Digital Crown to adjust the volume levels.

To re-enable sound on your watch, go to My Watch > Sounds & Haptics in the Apple Watch app on your iPhone and make sure that Cover to Mute is not selected.

Troubleshooting Why Apple Watch Is Not Dinging

If your Apple Watch isn’t dinging when you receive a notification, it’s likely because either Do Not Disturb or Airplane Mode is switched on. When either of these modes is active, your Apple Watch won’t make any sound or show any haptic feedback when you receive notifications. To ensure that your Apple Watch will ding when you receive notifications, check the Control Center to make sure both Do Not Disturb and Airplane Mode are off.

Troubleshooting Apple Watch Notifications for Text Messages

It is pssible that your Apple Watch is not receiving notifications of texts because your iMessage settings or Apple ID are not set up properly. To check this, go to Settings > Messages on your iPhone and make sure that iMessage is turned on. Then tap Send & Receive and make sure that you’re using the same Apple ID that your Apple Watch is using. If you aren’t signed in, sign in to iMessage with your Apple ID. Additionally, make sure that the Do Not Disturb function is not enabled on your watch and that the sound for text notifications is turned on.

Turning Off Silent Mode on a Watch

To get your Apple Watch out of silent mode, start by sliding your finger upwards from the bottom of the screen. Then, press the sound mode icon to turn it off. Finally, press the Digital Crown to return to the home screen. Your watch will now be out of silent mode and all sounds will be restored.
