Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 introduce a new Theater Mode setting

Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 feature a brand new Health Sensing System, which significantly enhances heart rate measurements. A key change is the introduction of Theater Mode, a setting that can be enabled to address concerns about the watch's green light being visible in dark settings. This mode reduces heart rate data collection from real-time to every five minutes, thereby minimizing the green light's visibility.

Users who find the green light bothersome can enable "In Theater Mode" under "Allow Continuous Measurements" within the watch's Settings Heart section to restore the more frequent heart rate data. Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 are currently available for purchase.
