Question

The remote "camera" button does not work Apple Watch SE 2

Maybe you can help me! After the update, the image in the "Camera" mode on Apple Watch SE 2 (watchOS: 10.4) stopped being displayed. Moreover, when you press the shutter button, a photo is taken, but no image.

Phone iPhone 14 pro max iOS 17.4.1

Can you tell me what to do in such a situation?

Apple Watch SE (2nd generation)

My remote camera has been stuck as well, here's what I tried successfully:

Force restarting both devices, then I changed the settings of automatically locking the screen on my iPhone in Settings/Display & Brightness/Auto-Lock/ from 30sec to 1min. After that the camera app on my Apple Watch worked again, even after switching back the time to 30sec display Auto-Lock on the iPhone.
