wake on wrist raise does not work on my Apple Watch My 'Wake on Wrist Raise function on my Apple Watch does not work. I have tried unpairing/re-pairing it, powering it off and on as well as the same with my iPhone. Is it a hardware problem and if so how do I get it fixed. I have not reset it yet as I don't see that as helping.

Apple Watch wake on wrist raise…. So my watch is currently on the watchOS 8.6, I’m not sure if this has anything to do with what’s going on, but my wake on raise is no longer working. I also have my watch set to always display the time at all times and that’s also not working anymore. Is anyone else having this issue and if so how did you fix it?

Go to My Watch -> General -> Watch Orientation in the Watch app on your iPhone and ensure that the correct wrist that you wear your Apple Watch on is selected.
