Order of the icon lost on Apple Watch!
This is the second time in 2 months I noticed surprisingly order of the App icons on my Apple Watch is lost, that they have been reset to the standard model. Now I need a considerable amount of work to reorganize the as they are many and they were precisely arranged on a special form.
Anyone know the reason for this problem?
Is it possible to restore it to the previous setting in / backup without having to manually reorganize?
Hello
You should be able to recover your custom layout app by resetting your watch and restoring a backup.
The app shows on your iPhone shows backups automatically, including a new when the unpairing via the application.
When you set up your watch once again, select restore backup. Choose a backup that was taken with the app icons have been configured as you wish. Restore the most recent backup (IE one that has been crossed with the disconnection), as this will only restore the default layout.
Most of the data and settings will be restored (from the time of the backup), with a few exceptions (for example cards Pay Apple, access code).

Impossible to activate the unlock Mac with Apple Watch
I am running Sierra on a MacBook Pro 15 "retina early 2013
I have the first edition of Apple Watch, running Watch OS3 and iPhone iOS running 6-10.
Everything is OK, except that I don't have the option to activate Mac unlock with watch in security settings
I disconnected (e) turned iCloud on all devices, turned to two factors, turn it on again, reconnected, rebooted devices. Plus a lot of combinations of these, but still no joy.
Could someone help me before I call support?

I use the touch screen only to scan documents. It's annoying to scroll through a series of unused icons to achieve the scan icon whenever I turn. How to reorder the icons so that the "Scan" icon is on the main home screen (on an iPhone that would be just pressed until it's mobile, but it does not work here).
You can customize the selection and order of the icons in the Apps folder, but I can't figure out how to move the other icons. Come on HP, your intuitive user interface needs some attention
Thank you!

Impossible to disable the notification app on Apple Watch 2
Hello
I recently bought a new series of Apple Watch 2, which comes with the watch as 3 preinstalled OS. I know that all my notifications in instant messaging (whatsapp, wechat) have been reflected on my Apple Watch. I find too boring and I want to turn it off. I followed the instructions (go Apple Watch app on the iphone paired, then notifications, search for the application and then turn off 'iphone mirror'), but it did not work. Notifications will always appear on my watch for these two applications. The only way I can get rid of the notification is to change the style of alert iphone to "none" for both applications. But this way I get the banner on iphone or which is not acceptable.
So my question is:
- What is the settings "mirror iphone alerts" in the menu of notification of Apple Watch app supposed to do? He seems to have no effect at all?
- This notification of iphone mirror setting OS level control or that something must be supported by the application in order to have the effect? In other words, if it's a bug, is a watch OS bug or a bug in the application?
Thank you
