Apple Watch

Hi,


My Apple Watch isn’t locking automatically when it’s on my wrist. It does it fine when I cover it with my hand when it’s not on my wrist? I’ve tried all this ...


‘Check settings in the Watch app for Wrist detection (My Watch / Passcode). If that doesn’t give a clue, try a forced reset by pressing and holding both buttons until the Apple logo appears, then release and let the watch reboot. You could also try unpairing and re-pair, setting up as a new watch to avoid any corrupted settings. ‘


...and still no luck.

Please let me know what I can do next.


Thanks,

Abbie

Apple Watch Series 5, watchOS 6
