Green snake of death

Watch has the green snake of death.

when I leave it on charge it doesn’t do anything. If I try to force reset it. It doesn’t show the apple logo, just goes back to the green snake??

Hello,


Im not exactly sure what screen you are describing but if its the charging symbol with cable it needs to stay on the charger for at least 30 minutes.


If your Apple Watch won't charge or it won't turn on - Apple Support

"If your watch requires charging, a red lightning bolt appears on the screen. (You might need to click the side button to see the watch face.) When your watch is charging, the red lightning bolt changes to a green lightning bolt . If your screen is blank or you see the charging cable icon and a red lightning bolt on the screen, charge your watch for up to 30 minutes."


Do you mean you are trying to reset or restart it while it's charging? If the screen is the previous do not attempt to do this.

I hope this helps.
