Until the last update on my apple watch the wallet worked beautifully but now despite 6 resets it only works for a few days and stops. I'm really frustrated as I use that feature alot and I don't know what else to try. I'd really like a refund on my watch since Apple have ruined it for me.
iPhone 13 mini, iOS 17
Getting the press and release timing just right can be an issue. You can make it more reliable by changing:
Settings -> Accessibility -> Side Button Click Speed
“Side Button Click Speed” can adjust the press and release timing, so you get the Control Center display every time. Adjusting The “Side Button Click Speed” is also useful for Apple Pay’s double press and release. There is “Default” (sub second timing of needed), “Slow” (up to a second between press and release), and “Slowest” (up to 2 seconds between press and release). I like the “Slow” setting.
NOTE: Slow and Slowest settings do not mean you have to wait a full second or 2 seconds between press and release. It just means you do not need to be super fast.
