Lefties, the Apple Watch is going to work just fine for you

If there's one bit of false information that's been spread over the past 24 hours more than anything else, it's the claim that the Apple Watch is hostile to left-handed users. This has popped up on Facebook, Twitter, and even news organizations, and it's causing quite a stir. The only problem is that it's a big old pile of garbage; The Apple Watch does indeed come with a left-handed mode.

As has now been confirmed by multiple individuals who went hands-on with the device, as well as Apple, the main body of the watch can be flipped so that the digital crown and button are on the right-hand side of the display. The display can be oriented so that it appears correctly in this configuration, making the watch 100% lefty-friendly.

Now please, for the sake of everyone's sanity, stop freaking out.
