Apple Watch Series 8 - Keyboard

I’m having issues with my Apple Watch keyboard. I can’t switch from Scribble to QWERTY and visa versa, and I can’t change the language of my keyboard. Sometimes I can swipe up on the screen to control the keyboard, but it’s not often. Spanish is a language on my iPhone, but it’s not on my watch. Any advise?

QWERTY keyboard on Apple Watch Series 8 doesn't appear Hi, I just bought an Apple Watch Series 8 and the qwerty keyboard doesn't appear when I try to send a message (in any app). I tried everything - restarting the watch in every possible way, changing language to English on my iPhone and on my watch also, the type option is not there neither way. When I tap on the writing field, it automatically takes me to the choice of "drawing" or suggested answers, no keyboard anywhere. Do you know if there's a solution to this problem? I saw on the forum that several people had the same problem, but no one solved it.

Apple Watch ultra input keyboard language I am facing the following problem. I just purchased the Apple Watch Ultra, when answering a message from the watch, you can answer in Russian using voice dictation only, there is no possibility to select a Russian or Ukrainian keyboard for writing text, the watch itself is in Russian, I tried to change the keyboard language in the Apple Watch application settings - it did not help, Keyboard in Russian/Ukrainian is not available. Are there any additional settings? Please help, thanks in advance!

Figured it out: it's the screen's touch sensitivity. I have a callous on my finger that my Apple Watch can't register. That's been the problem the entire time.
