My series 5 watch will not turn on by raising my wrist or stay even though setting always on is on and wake by raising wrist is on?

How do I get my series 5 to be always on or turn on when I raise my wrist. Both settings are on. The watch is not much good if you need 2 hands to read the time

Make sure Theatre Mode (icon with 2 masks) is not ON.

  • Swipe up fro your Watch screen to see the Control Centre
  • Tap Theatre Mode to turn it OFF.
