Taptic engine gets stuck

Hello

My watches taptic engines seens to get stuck after a period of being dormant .

I get zero taps In the morning after a whole night of charging.

If i dont go to the watch app and mess around with tap intensity and volume sliders or force some hearbeats messages It will stay stuck all day!

Sometimes a little hard shaking or taping of fingers on the watch gets it going as well.... But if it rests for an hour or so it gets stuck again!


Anyone experiancing this?

any solutions?

could it be a bad taptic engine ?


Plus .. I would have liked the taps to have been a little more pronounced ... Too marginal now even at the highest setting !

Watch Sport 42mm, OS X Yosemite (10.10.3), iphone6 .. iPad air

I too have noticed that Haptic Feedback quits working. I came back from a two week vacation (I left my watch at home) and since then it has not worked like it should. I can tap on Haptic Feedback strength a bunch until it starts working again but after about 15 min it quits working, I have restored both my iPhone and Apple Watch, no success. 😟
