Assistive Touch

I have the series 6 cellular watch and it’s updated to watchOS 8.0 but I don’t have the option for assistive touch under accessibility. Assistive touch doesn’t appear in my settings at all. Why is this? How can I fix it?

Apple Watch Series 6, watchOS 7

watchOS 8 not showing assistive touch option Title pretty much explains it all, I’ve updated to iOS 15.0 and watchOS 8.0 and there is no option for assistive touch in the accessibility section of watch settings for me. Not sure if it’s because a series 4 watch is too old… but I couldn’t find any info stating that certain watches don’t support the feature. So I’m at a loss on what I’m doing wrong.

Assistive touch on iWatch series 3 I have recently updated my iWatch series 3 to latest watchOS 8. I was excited to experience assistive touch feature on my watch. But I can’t see that in settings for my watch. Is that feature is not available for watch series 3?

If you open the Apple Watch App on your iPhone, in Accessibility, does the option appear there?

Also, the newest WatchOS for Apple Watch is 8.1. Update your watch and see if that makes a difference.
