I upgraded to watchOS 8.0 and wake screen no longer exists. It’s not that it doesn’t work it’s the the option “wake screen” no longer exists! I’ve tried resetting and hard resetting with no resolution. How do I get it back???
This was driving me crazy, too, but I found it! Go to Settings>Display and Brightness
Then there are setting for the wake screen, s well as the audio auto mode (which is why I needed to find the wake screen options.)

Hello. I am having the same problem, but from a different perspective. My issue has to do with the Wake Screen settings for specific apps, like Keynote. Here are some instructions I was trying to follow from https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT204623:
Keynote works best with these settings on your Apple Watch:
I don't see Keynote under Wake Screen anywhere from my watch settings or on the Watch app on my iPhone. Any ideas?
Thanks!
Are you referring to seeing this on the Watch in Settings? I've never looked there, but I can say that if you look in Settings>Display & Brightness on the Watch you will find Wake commands, as well as Wake duration based on a tap. These are the same settings you will find in the Watch app on the iPhone.
What about Wake screen is not working? Are you looking on the Watch, or in the Watch app on the iPhone? The Wake settings in the Watch app on the iPhone should be located in Settings>Display & Brightness>Wake on Wrist Raise. Also, if the screen is remaining black, it is possible that Theater Mode has been activated. Swipe up from the bottom of the Watch screen to bring up Control Center. Find the icon with the 2 theater masks. If it is white, it is off, if yellow it is turned on. If you turn it off, the Watch should be back to normal.
Wake screen is not working because the option is no longer there after the update. General->settings->scroll. No wake screen. It’s gone. iPhone settings don’t control the Apple Watch that I can find.
Same with me. That option is gone after update
Thank you! After almost an hour of saying aloud “UGH!! I DON’T HAVE A WAKE SCREEN TAB!!!”, I found your answer!! And it worked!
Thank you!!!
Thank you, I found the setting on my iPhone but not on my watch.
LindseyF516, your answered worked great...thank you!!!
There are no answer on google and YouTube this was the only helpful thing
Thanks Chris! Theater was turned on. You just saved me a trip to the Apple Store.
Glad I was able to help.
No more wake screen option
