My watch (Apple Watch Series 6 (GPS+Cellular, Global, 44 mm) touch screen became non responsive after last update. Happened once before after en update but intermittently and it stopped after putting on charger and/or resetting and on charger. Now nothing works. Apple support says update cant damage it and if i want i can leave it in for reparation but i will have to pay for it. WTF?!?
Update: after some day of non responsive screen I tried dipping it in normal sink water for 30 minutes (I started open water swim via siri first!) and left it later out of charger for battery to die.
Restarted day after and edge of scrteen became partially responsive.
It got better after two days and now its working fully.
Strange. Living watch with regenerative capabilities?!?
Did, a lot of times, on and off the charger, and didnt solve the issue. And, got the support, restored the weatch from a backup - nothing helped. They said I should bring it in to see whats the fault and I should pay for repair.
He tried telling me that watch isnt water proof or sth but just resistant and I didnt have any of it, I told him I was swimming with it all these years without any issues (3 years I think). Problems started immediately after the update….
Try and force restart it to see if the issues persists
To force restart, hold down the side button and the Digital Crown at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
