Watch Ultra "clear all" bug

I'm seeing this as well. Ultra 2, all the time, 2nd attempt works, after you dismiss the Notification Center and swipe back down to reopen it.

some updates ago I notied that the clear button mark as being pressed but somehow not pressed enough and I have to do it again and hold the finger in a bit longer, same with other places like the exercise app.

I take it as a design choice rather than a bug, even if I find it annoying myself.

I have just tried that on my Ultra 2, pressing the "Clear All" button on top of the screen worked perfectly.

Did you already force restart your watch after the latest update by pressing the Digital Crown and the Side button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again?

I made it a habit to do that after each watchOS update, just to be sure. A normal shutdown and starting the watch again may also clear glitches.

Also, the "Clear All" button it positioned quite narrow to the edge of the display, which may also play a part in not registering the touch of the finger.

Just tried my original Ultra and it worked perfectly first time. I don’t recall having this issue before either. Do you use a screen protector? On a watch they may cause odd touch issues, in my experience.

Same watch, same problem.

Rarely works on first attempt to clear all.

Always works after pressing the crown button and repeating.

I've noticed the same behavior on a Watch Ultra 3.

Glad, that your watch is working again🙂

This is not solved and its not specific to the Ultra. I experience it on a Series 8.
