Apple Watch Screen goes black when touched

Same issue here. After about 3 weeks starting having this exact issue. Hard two-button reset resolved the issue. Hopefully fixed in Apple Watch OS 2.0 which is about to be released with the announcement yesterday.

Same problem here. Owned it since August. It's getting worse. Fully charged, try to open app, goes dark. Double-press restart doesn't work. If I put it back on to the charger it starts up with Power Cord Graphic.

Turn off your watch and restart, if it gets stuck on Apple logo, force restart by pressing both buttons at same time, mine came ok after I did this.

Yes, I've had my watch about a month and the same thing just started to happen.

Hi thanks for replying and I hope that is software issue. I will definetly try hard reset it and see.

Mine started doing this today...not happy.

YUp,

Just had this problem too...

Just trying the hard reset, pressing both buttons together until the logo re-appears to see if this resolves it.

mmmm...

Same here - just started today after 5 weeks of running fine. The 2 button reset also worked for me.

Also had this happen to me this morning; a two-button reset and it was fixed.

I had the same issue. I reset my Apple Watch and it seems to be working ok now. I had to do a hard restart by pressing both buttons on the side until the Apple icon appeared.

Thank you for the tip. My Apple watch just started acting up with touch screen shutting off and the hard restart worked.

Just had the same issue for the first time since I got the Apple Watch a couple of months ago. Did the hard reset and it seems to be working fine now.

Hi, I also faced this issue today. However when charged it for 5 minutes, it started working well again. Hoping that this issue doesn't require a hard reset.

this is a problem. I hope this will be fixed in the next update.
