AW 4 (my first) and the latest watch OS. Is it possible to change the haptic intensity? I’ve been reading it is in my searches but can’t seem to find it in my settings. Was this feature removed as of late?

You used to be able to change it on a scale, but now it's just standard or prominent (settings > sounds & haptics). Not sure when it changed.

On the Watch, press the crown to show the grid of apps. On the bottom left you will see the Settings icon. In Settings, scroll down to Sounds & Haptics. You can select "Prominent" which gives you a stronger tap before most alerts.

As @alFR mentioned, the slider to adjust haptic strength is no longer an option.
 
Much appreciated... I was specifically looking for the slider which you guys just confirmed isn’t there anymore. I did already have it set to prominent, though. Thank you!

I was wondering about that. I always had it set to the strongest setting anyway with prominent "on".
