Looking to move to the Ultra.

My question is: I know you can use AOD or raise to wake - but is there a setting where the watch face will only come on if you either touch the screen or press one of the buttons?

Thank you.

If you turn off AOD and raise to wake then the screen will not come on unless you tap it or push a button.

Yes, it’s called Theater Mode. AOD and raise to wake are disabled, it will only turn on if you tap the screen. All apple watches have this feature
 
Fwmireault is correct. However, theatre mode will mute all sounds as well. In case that’s an issue.
Thanks! Sorry to be dim, but what sounds would I miss out one? Anything else disabled with theatre mode?
