Is there a way to “senior proof” an Apple Watch? Grandma keeps leaning on it, opening the control center, and disabling cellular or enabling airplane mode on accident. (alien.top)

Ideally I’d like to only have the watch detect falls, be used via Siri to call out or receive calls, and show the clock. Seems like this device may be too complicated for Grandma.

Go to the watch app> accessibility > touch accommodations, turn on the hold duration that will help with accidental touches. Hope that helps
