Watch used to display with wrist movement. Can’t figure out how to get it back.
Apple Watch, watchOS 4
It sounds as if you may have Theatre Mode engaged.
See this article for more information on Theatre mode and how to turn it off:
It's a really great feature. Until you forgot you've left it on. I use it at night and sometimes in the morning, I forget to take it off. Several seconds of wrist shaking ensue before the "Doh!" moment.
That was the answer. I had failed to look beyond the wrist motion setting.
A curious 2 year old shut the feature off. Your answer was correct.
It's amazing what a curious 2-year old can do with technology.
Glad you got it sorted out.
In the watch app on the phone go into general/wake screen and the settings are there.
How do I get watch to respond to wrist movement?
