Is there a complete list of all the Apple Watch 1.x Taptic engine patterns somewhere?

There seem to be different haptic patterns for notifications, messages, phone call, left turn, right turn, U-turn back, reached-destination, and maybe others. But I haven't seen them all listed in one place.

It would be really nice if Apple did a Taptic catalog app so that a new user can feel and memorize them all.

(For the WatchKit 2.0 SDK, Apple has a list of tap pattern names, but no tactile/haptic descriptions for each named tap.)
 
yea i wouldnt mind knowing this too. ive only experienced 3 different kinds.

- - - - = timer done
___ . = new message (with prominent on)
. = exercise progress update

What I'd like to see is an option in the future to choose the pattern you want for each type of notification. For example, I have Prominent Haptics on because I miss too many regular haptics, but I'd actually prefer something "in-between".

I imagine this option will come eventually.
