Apple Watch 5 - can’t get ECG app to start meausurement

Hi

iPhone XR + Watch 5 - The ECG app is present and starts up showing the pulse heart - but when I put my finger on the crown it doesn't start count down - anyone experienced this before and knows the solution?


I've already tried deleting the App on the watch and installed it again - still no measurement

Apple Watch Series 5, watchOS 7
