Hi
The following steps may help:
On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch (tab) > Passcode > check that Wrist Detection is turned on.
With your iPhone and Apple Watch connected via Bluetooth, check that Bedside / Nightstand Mode has been enabled:
- On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch (tab) > General - enable the mode.
- About Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and cellular on your Apple Watch - Apple Support
If the mode has already been enabled, then turn it off, pause for a few moments and then re-enable it.
Restart (normally) both your iPhone and your Apple Watch, turning both off together, then restarting your iPhone first:
When placing your Apple Watch into Bedside / Nightstand Mode:
- Check that your Apple Watch is standing on its side in a fully upright position (at 90 degrees to the surface), with the buttons on top.
- If you are using a third-party accessory such as a charging stand, then it may help to remove your Apple Watch from it and to instead place your Apple Watch directly on the table.
- Check that your Apple Watch is connected to the charger and connected to power.
- Check that you are following Apple's instructions for charging your Apple Watch, including:
- Using original Apple or MFi-certified charging accessories.
- If you are already doing so, try using another such cable and/or power adapter.
- Checking that all wrapping has been removed from all items, including checking carefully on the head of the charging cable.
- Checking that the charging cable and power adapter are fully inserted into the port and power socket.
- Using original Apple or MFi-certified charging accessories.
