watchOS and Apple Watch Apps

Hello there people,

So i recently got myself an apple watch sports edition space gray and was looking at the accessibility settings on it,

For some reason however, for the life of me, i could not figure out how to increase the speech rate of voiceover on my watch..

Is there like a finger gesture or do i need to go somewhere to change the speech rate,
I went into the watch app on my iphone but could find any option to change the speech rate,
Any help would be appreciated,
Thank you so much
Sincerely,
Arvind

Hello, if you open the Watch app, select General, then Accessibility, and then select VoiceOver, just after the toggle to turn VoiceOver on or off, you have the Speech Rate settings. As for changing it on the Watch itself, I too have checked and can't seem to find it either. I thought it would be in the similar location as on the Watch app on the iPhone, under General, Accessibility, VoiceOver, but all that is under this is the toggle to turn VoiceOver on or off, no settings to change the speech rate. At least it can be done on the Watch app on the phone. HTH!
