Have you ever found your Apple Watch completely unresponsive? If yes, you are not alone. There are a number of users who have reported that the Watch doesn’t respond or turn on. Its screen doesn’t respond to taps or wrist gestures-kind to get frozen.
Even if the watch turns on, it seems to get stuck during startup. What could be the possible cause of this annoying inconvenience and how to fix it easily?
Your watch won’t respond to taps or wrist gestures in two possible situations.
#1. If it has the low battery.
#2. If it is in Power Reserve mode.
- In such a situation, press and hold on the side button of your Apple Watch. If you see only time on the watch screen, it means the watch is in Power Reserve mode.
- To get it out of Power Reserve mode, press and hold on the side button for about ten seconds until you see Apple logo on the screen.
- If you see a red icon next to the time, you need to charge your watch right away.
