It is possible to sound an alarm on the iPhone. Of course the sound also sounds even if you set the iPhone to mute. Also, when the countdown displayed on the screen becomes 0, the volume will rise.


IPhone's screen at the moment the sound rang. As the notification comes as follows, if you want to stop the sound you need to open the application to stop the sound or stop the sound from the Apple Watch side.


When the distance between iPhone and Apple Watch goes away, the indicator on the screen changes like the following.



And when Apple Watch and the iPhone can not communicate, it becomes like this. If you tap "Display previous location information" here ...


When pairing, the last position information received by the Apple Watch side is displayed on the map. So, "Where about the iPhone lost in the vicinity" is obvious.


In addition, check "Enable notification" from iPhone application setting screen and tap "Done" ...


As soon as the connection between iPhone and Apple Watch is broken it will display a notification as below. Apple Watch is a device that you use by wrapping around your wrist, and as soon as a notification arrives, the terminal will vibrate and it will rarely miss this. So, at the moment I tried to leave the iPhone somewhere, Lookout gave me a notice so there was little worry about forgetting to leave the device.
