Watch series 6 unresponsive

At least once a day, the pull down to see the red dot notification on the watch becomes unresponsive. Everything else works and it responds to my touch when I click the dial and go to the main menu. But the only way I can get it to respond to my pull down from the Home Screen when I have a notification is a forced restart. Everyday. Is there a way to fix this problem please? Thank you

Hey there NBVN55 ,


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. We understand that your Watch becomes unresponsive when viewing notifications. We're happy to provide some assistance.


Let's first make sure the Watch and connected iPhone are updated to the latest available software versions:


Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Update your Apple Watch


If the issue persists, unpair your Watch from your iPhone and pair it again:


Unpair and erase your Apple Watch

Set up and pair your Apple Watch with iPhone


If the issue persists after that, let us know if this occurs with a specific notification or any notifications you receive.


We hope this helps.


Have a great day!
