Double click on Apple Watch no longer brings up Apple Wallet

Double click no longer brings up wallet, all the other widgets accessed by the crown also come up. I see this as a fault not a feature. If I want to see the other widgets I can press the crown.

Wallet disappeared from Apple Watch The wallet app is no longer visible on my Apple Watch. It does not show in the list of apps and it does not open when double clicking the side button. In the App Store in the watch it says open instead of install for the wallet but nothing happens. On my iPhone in the watch settings wallet and credit card are properly installed. Can anyone please help?

Apple Watch 7 wallet press mode Why doesn’t my wallet Express Mode work on my Apple Watch 7? It is turned on in both the watch wallet app and the Watch app on my iPhone 13 Pro Max. I have tried holding the Watch near the Apple Pay icon without opening the wallet app, and also opening the app before holding the Watch near the pay icon. Always need to double click side button first. I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong and need help.

Sometimes double clicking on apple watch does not work Occasionally when I am in a store ready to use Apple Pay via my apple watch and I double click on the side button to bring up a credit card, the credit card does not come up but the there is a flurry of displaying various apps (like it wants to show the dock). I end up using my iPhone to complete the transaction. When I get home, I try it again, and the credit card appears just as it should. Might it be certain terminals that cause this? This has happened several times at a Publix store, and once or twice at Aldi, but not always at either store. This has been a problem since the last update I believe, but may be coincidental. If I reboot the watch, it behaves OK for a week or so at any store.

OK......Let's try a Forced Restart:

Press and hold BOTH the digital crown and power buttons at the SAME time. Keep holding them until you see the Apple Logo (can take several seconds), then let them both go. Your Apple Watch will restart and you'll need to enter your passcode when prompted. See if double tap to pay works again.

Are you double tapping the elongated power button?

Yes, not the crown.

I turned off and then back on and now it works correctly. Apple support didn’t know this.

I'm glad a simpler restart corrected it for you.
