Any reason to as when I unlock my watch it will continuously lock itself even if I’m in the middle of replying to a sms or doing something on my watch. I must do it constantly throughout the day. I know I can always turn it off but I do use the nfc pay on it.
Is it because I’m tattooed? I remember a long time ago hearing something about that, some kind of sensor? but not sure if it applied to the screen lock
Let your wrist breathe holy shit.
Lmao it’s breathing I swear!
The watch should be further up your arm, on the other side of the ulnar styloid. Check the Apple website for the exact point. Your tattoo & wrist movement will cause inaccurate readings, and it will lock.
It’s the ink. But this reminds me of the very first AW I ever got. It had a bad sensor and it returned to the Lock Screen constantly. I didn’t know jack about the AW and I thought maybe it was a feature. Took me a couple of hours to realize it. During that time I’m thinking, “This thing really sucks!”
Your tattoos bro. You’re not the first to have this issue with watch + tattoo combo.
I’m tattooed and never had this problem. The watch looks like it’s cutting off all blood supply though.
i had to start wearing my watch on my right wrist because my left arm sleeve ruined all my workouts ☹️
I’ve seen some people just get the ink removed in the circle the sensors would go. It’s easily the best option
Maybe it’s your tattoo but my watch has been randomly locking a lot lately and I don’t have any tattoos where my watch is so maybe it’s a bug or something with one of the updates.
Same here, no tattoo there. Try disabling and re-enabling wrist detection and see if that helps. So far, working as expected now for me but I am giving it a few more days before I call it fixed.
Do you have tattoo on your right arm too?
Tat issues are common. Turn the watch around and try it. Or switch wrists. The sensor can’t see through your tats
I have this SAME issue, and no tattoo there. I just disabled the lock feature.
It’s because of your tattoos
It’s not the tattoo, idk why everyone is saying it is. I have no tattoos on that part of my arm, same hand. Also having constant re-locking issues as well.
After a search, I found that disabling the wrist detection option and then re-enabling it might fix it. I’ve done it, and so far hasn’t happened again. But I am not calling it solved just yet, giving it some more time before I do. I rebooted in between toggling of that option as well.
Just because your issue wasn’t tattoo related doesn’t mean this one isn’t. It is commonly known tattoos affect the sensors so the watch thinks it’s been detached from the wrist.
It’s the ink bro…
Damn
Could you switch it to the other wrist maybe? Or possibly wear the watch body portion on the inside of your wrist with AOD set to on?
Its for sure the Tattoo. I have a similar Problem. I would just disable Pin 👍🏻
If I must I must 😞
You can just deactivate wrist detection in the passcode settings
