# Apple Watch

> Fregata Mobile on Apple Watch — nothing to set up, your cameras at a glance and full screen, alerts and detections from the last day with the Digital Crown to scrub and zoom, Live from an alert, and the Alerts complication.

On Apple Watch, Fregata Mobile does three things: it tells you what happened, shows you what's
happening now, and hands everything else to your iPhone. It needs watchOS 26.

## Nothing to set up

The watch app comes with the iPhone app, and takes your servers and sign-in from your iPhone.
Open it once on the iPhone, then on the watch; there's nothing to type on your wrist. If the
watch says **Open Fregata Mobile on your iPhone**, do just that, with the watch nearby.

Once it has them, the watch reaches your server by itself, over Wi-Fi, its own cellular
connection, or through your iPhone. Away from home it needs the same
[Away address](https://mobile.fregata.app/docs/getting-started/remote-access/) your iPhone uses.

## The first screen

_Picture: The watch's Cameras screen: an Alerts tile showing one new alert, 2 minutes ago; a Detections tile, last 24 hours; and the Backyard camera's picture below._

- **Alerts**: the last day's alerts, with how many you haven't reviewed and how recent the newest
  is.
- **Detections**: the last day's detections.
- **Your cameras**, each with a recent picture. Tap one to see it full screen.

## A camera, full screen

_Picture: The Front Porch camera full screen on the watch, with a Live pill at the bottom, page dots for the five cameras, and a Zoom hint for the Digital Crown._

Full screen, the picture updates several times a second for a minute, marked **Live**, then
pauses to save the battery: **Tap to resume**. It stops whenever you lower your wrist. There's no
sound.

- **Turn the Digital Crown** to zoom in, up to where the detail is.
- **Swipe** left or right for the next camera.
- If the picture can't be fetched, it says why, such as **Can't reach server**, and how old the
  picture is: **Last seen 2 min ago**.

## Alerts and detections

Tap **Alerts** or **Detections** for the last 24 hours, newest first, each with Frigate's picture,
what and where, and how long ago. A dot marks one you haven't reviewed.

_Picture: An alert on the watch: the porch picture with a progress bar under it, 4:36:15 PM, Person, Front Porch, 4:36:12 PM, 9.8 seconds, a big Live button, and Newer and Older._

- **Turn the Digital Crown** to scrub through the alert's clip.
- **Live** opens that camera full screen.
- **Newer** and **Older** step through the list.
- The filter at the corner of the list, **Show only unreviewed**, hides what you've seen.
- **Mark All Reviewed**, under the list, clears the rest at once, on your server, as Review does on
  the iPhone.

## Alerts on your wrist

Alerts reach your watch the way your iPhone's notifications do: when the iPhone is locked and the
watch is on your wrist. Raise your wrist to see the picture, what it was and when. **Live** opens
the camera full screen; tapping the alert opens it in the app.

What reaches the watch follows your iPhone's [filters](https://mobile.fregata.app/docs/alerts/filters/) and
[snoozes](https://mobile.fregata.app/docs/alerts/snooze/), so there's nothing to set up on the watch for that either.

## Complications

The **Alerts** complication shows how many alerts are waiting to be reviewed, and when the last one
was: **3 to review**, **Last 4:36 PM**. Add it like any complication: touch and hold the watch
face, tap **Edit**, then choose Fregata Mobile. Tap it to open the alerts.

When a Live Activity is running on your iPhone, it shows in the watch's Smart Stack too. See
[Live Activities](https://mobile.fregata.app/docs/alerts/live-activities/).

## When something's wrong

- **Your iPhone isn't in reach right now**: the watch needs the iPhone nearby once, to take your
  servers from it.
- **Check the password on your iPhone**, **Sign-in refused**: the sign-in changed. Fix it in the
  iPhone app's **Settings › Connection**, and the watch follows.
- **Certificate changed**, **Confirm it on your iPhone**: the server's certificate changed; decide
  on the iPhone. See [Certificate questions](https://mobile.fregata.app/docs/troubleshooting/certificates/).
- **Too many sign-ins**, **Wait a minute**: the server is limiting sign-ins for a moment.
