What the watch app shows

The Apple Watch app can show:

  • Whether you are currently Wearing or Not Wearing.

  • The active out-of-mouth timer.

  • Today’s out-of-mouth time.

  • Remaining out-of-mouth allowance.

  • Whether you are on track or behind your daily goal.

Start or stop the timer from Apple Watch

  1. Open AlignerSilk on Apple Watch.

  2. Tap the timer control when your aligners come out.

  3. Tap again when your aligners go back in.

The watch sends the updated timer state back to your iPhone.

If the watch and phone do not match

Try these steps:

  1. Open AlignerSilk on your iPhone.

  2. Open AlignerSilk on your Apple Watch.

  3. Keep both devices nearby for a few moments.

  4. If needed, refresh the watch app or reopen it.

The watch uses Apple’s Watch Connectivity system, so updates are fastest when both devices are nearby, awake, and connected.

If the watch timer keeps running

Open AlignerSilk on your iPhone and check the Timer tab. The iPhone is the best place to confirm the final saved session and correct history if needed.
