Finally, Apple succumbs to its own tunnel vision. Having pioneered pinch and zoom for small form factor displays, they think that's the only way to do touch-based zoom. So stupid, they ask the question, how do you do pinch and zoom on a watch? It's just not going to work. So, what's the answer? The digital crown.
Duh! If it's a watch, it has to have that thing on the side you use to adjust it. Yuck!
Why not get rid of the damn thing? You need zoom, why not think of a better way? How about this?
To zoom in, you drag your fingers along the edge in a motion that suggest yours turning a tap or a screw or a lid clockwise. Opposite for zooming out. You can get much finer control than with the stupid digital crown thing. Sure, you might not be able to move both fingers, but you only have to sense the intention - if you detect touch on 2 sides, you're in business..
