After last update my watch keeps calling 911. The Digital Crown is no longer used to push out water or to get into my apps from my watch face. It only calls 911 after less than a second touch. When restarting it forces me to erase watch and all content. Turned off SOS crown touch in app on phone but the communication is lost when it comes to Crown touching SOS cause any touch on crown calls 911

Hello HaggardInfadel,


If you've turned off the SOS setting as stated in the article Contact emergency services with Apple Watch, we recommend you Contact Apple for support and service.


If you don’t want your Apple Watch to automatically start the emergency countdown when you press and hold the side button, turn off Automatic Dialing. Open the Settings app  on your Apple Watch, tap SOS, tap Hold Side Button, then turn off Hold Side Button. (Or open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone, tap My Watch, tap Emergency SOS, then turn off Hold Side Button to Dial.) You can still make an emergency call with the Emergency Call slider.


Best Regards.
