Q: apple pay stops working on watch

Hi

Check that cards are still added to your watch:

- On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch > Wallet & Apple Pay.

Note that, if you turn off Wrist Detection, turn off Passcode or sign out of iCloud, all payment cards will be removed from your watch automatically, as a built-in security measure.

Check that you are double-clicking quickly enough.

For comparison / guidance purposes: in order to activate Apple Pay via the side button on Apple Watch, the double-click needs to be significantly quicker than the slower speeds at which a double-click on the iPhone's Home button causes previews of open apps to be displayed.

To familiarise yourself with the required speed, you can practice launching this screen on your watch at any time. To return to the watch face, press the Digital Crown once.

It may help to restart your watch:

• Restart your Apple Watch - Apple Support

If you have not yet done so, it may also help to update your watch to the latest software:

• Update the software on your Apple Watch - Apple Support

You are most welcome - so have I!
