Q: Apple Watch screen curtain wont turn off.

One day I magically turned both voiceover and screen current on on my Apple Watch. Ive tried resertting it hoping it would go back to normal, of course life isn't that easy. Voice over turns on and off easily, but my screen continues to be blacK. Anyone know how to fix?

Apple Watch Sport 42mm, iOS 9.0.2

    Hi

     

    On your iPhone, in the Apple Watch app, go to: My Watch > General > Accessibility > Voiceover - on that screen:

     

    - Check that VoiceOver is turned off;

    - Turn Screen Curtain off.

     

    If that does not immediately resolve your issue, restart your watch:

     

    - Press and hold the side button until you see the Power Off slider; Drag the slider to turn off completely; Afterwards, press and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo.
