Apple Watch has many unique features while comparing to other smartwatches in the market. In that list, Theater Mode is one of the unique features of the Apple Watch, which is very helpful while in a theater.
It typically turns the screen off and mutes notifications like silent mode. You’ll only get haptic feedback while receiving any notifications. Either you can them or see them by double-tapping on it or by pressing the side button.
The main purpose of this mode is that screen will never turn on automatically while raising your wrist. When the screen is not turned on, no light will come from your watch, and you can enjoy disturbance-free movies or concerts in theaters.
