Hi getitupye,
Force restarting can resolve issues with Apple Watch not starting up properly:
"Force Apple Watch to restart
If you can’t turn off your Apple Watch or if the problem continues, you may need to force your Apple Watch to restart. Do this only if you’re unable to restart your Apple Watch.
To force restart, hold down the side button and the Digital Crown at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears."
If the problem persists, Contact Apple for support and service
Cheers.
hi, cheers for the reply. Tried the force restart, didn’t work. Turns out it’s a software issue. Iwatch been sent back to the depot for a total refurb. If that doesn’t work then it’s under warranty so I imagine I’ll get a replacement watch. Pain in the butt though
Hi getitupye,
We're glad to hear that you are getting the issue worked out with service. Thanks for letting the community know.
Take care!
iwatch 8 wont recover
