Hand washing app not working

I have a Series 8 watch. The hand washing app stopped working. I made sure that it is enabled, I power the watch off and on. I see that it shows that it is there but it no longer detects my hand washing.

Hey Debrac4814,


We'd recommend trying the following steps to see if it helps resolve the issue you're having with Hadnwashing on your Apple Watch.


  1. Check for and install any updates that may be available to your iPhone and Apple Watch as updates can sometimes resolve issues:

Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

Update your Apple Watch - Apple Support

2. Check to ensure that Handwashing is enabled for your Apple Watch: Set Up Handwashing

3. Restart your Apple Watch and paired iPhone.

4. If the previous steps haven't helped, unpair and then pair your Apple Watch: Unpair and erase your Apple Watch - Apple Support


Thanks!
