Hopefully another quick question. So I like that my watch notifies me of all kinds of stuff but is there any way to set a time limit on the notification ie if I don’t bother to look at it and dismiss it, it will disappear in x minutes on its own?

Mine disappears after about 10 seconds.

Looking forward to the watchOS 26 feature, where you can flick your wrist to dismiss notifications.

I mean timeout completely so that even the red dot and the swipe down list disappear. Probably can’t be done

I don't think it can.

You can pull up Notification Centre, to glance at the notification, then when you come out of it there will be no red dot.

You can, of course, clear Notification Centre of all notifications.
