My Apple Watch stopped showing the time.

My watch suddenly stopped showing the time until I hit the crown. The app settings are to always display. What’s wrong and how do I fix it

From the bottom of your screen swipe up to open control center. If the two mask icon is lit, tap it to turn it off (it's Theater Mode). And if that's not the issue, open the Settings App on your Apple Watch, then swipe up till you see Battery. Tap it and check to see if Low Power Mode is turned on. If yes, turn it off.


These are the two most common reasons always on may not be working.
