Iwatch 8 font way too large. No response to physical touches, had to reset

New iWatch on iPhone iWatch settings no accessibility shortcuts were set. IWatch font (after person with Iwatch slept with it on at night) became so large it is unreadable. No gestures or pressing crown or side button worked. Had to press side button and crown at the same time to reset.

Once we had reset the IWatch we saw. Invalid passcode try again in three hours. Argh

You were zoomed. double tap with two fingers would have turned it back to normal.


Or turn zoom right off in iPhone, Watch app, My Watch tab, Accessibility, Zoom


If you don't want to wait 3 hours and don't mind losing data ...
