Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

Having a visible time The screen is dark until I lightly thump it. Turning the wrist will not bring any light to the face.

How do I get my screen to automatically light up?

Are you in Theater Mode by any chance?

Use Control Center on your Apple Watch - Apple Support

In Theater Mode the screen stays dark until you tap or press a button.
