Unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This should result in no loss of data. It deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.

Before you do the backup/restore have you checked the following?


  1. From the bottom of the Apple Watch screen slide up to open Control Center - Is Theater Mode on (the two masks) - If yes, tap it to turn it off
  2. Is Low Power Mode turned on? Open the Settings app on your Watch. Tap General. Tap Battery. If Low Power Mode is turned on, turn it off.
