Apple into the system watchOS 3.2, which came out tonight, incorporated Theater Mode. Through it, you deactivate the screen and mute the watch without stopping the notifications. You will appreciate this mode both in the cinema or the theater, and also, for example, at night when you want to sleep peacefully.
With the first watchOS it was possible to turn off the sounds and display on Apple Watch only by selecting the "Do Not Disturb" option. Although this method turned off the sounds on the watch, it also completely blocked all notifications. Then there was a dedicated button to mute the watch, but the display still lit up when a notification arrived. However, Theater mode mutes the display and sounds, but you still get notifications.

To activate Theater mode, slide out on the screen Apple Watch control panel. Here you will find the Theater mode represented by a pair of masks. As soon as you click on the icon, it turns orange and turns on Theater mode. The icon will also appear at the top of the display to let you know that the mode is active. If you want to turn it off, just click on the mask icon again.
The watch's display won't even light up when you raise your hand, because Theater mode lets it know you're not currently interested in the content on the display.

What will happen next, toilet regime?
Note that the mode is correctly called Cinema Mode. But I also found the theater more appropriate.
It's a nice feature and will extend battery life. Sometimes I deactivate the function of waking up the display by raising my wrist on my watch, and it is quite noticeable in the battery life ;-).. The new function will make it much easier for me.
Hello, after installing watch OS 3.2, my watch turns off when I move my hand. IfoneI understand without movement, the set wake-up interval of 15 or 75 seconds is respected, but the slightest movement of my hand with the watch turns off the display. It's quite annoying and I don't know where to set it, I've already gone through everything miniat least 5 times. It seems like the motion sensor was reacting and affecting not only the display turning on but also turning off. But I have the function in "Wake screen - Wake screen when raising wrist" turned off.
Thank you very much for the advice.
