Hello Grammysheryl,


Thank you for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. If you haven't tried yet, we recommend to restart your Apple Watch and to ensure that it is updated to the latest watchOS version. Having the latest update on the Apple Watch provides software improvements that may help. Here's how:


Update your Apple Watch using your iPhone
You can wait until Apple Watch notifies you when a new update is available. Tap Update Tonight in the notification, then go to your iPhone to confirm that you want to update overnight. At the end of the day, leave your Apple Watch and iPhone charging overnight so the update can complete.

Or you can update your Apple Watch with your iPhone manually:

1. On your iPhone, open the Apple Watch app, then tap the My Watch tab. 
2. Tap General > Software Update.

3. Download the update. If asked for your iPhone passcode or Apple Watch passcode, enter it. 
4. Wait for the progress wheel to appear on your Apple Watch. It could take from several minutes to an hour for the update to complete. 

Leave your Apple Watch on its charger while the update completes. Don't restart your iPhone or Apple Watch, and don't quit the Apple Watch app. When the update completes, your Apple Watch restarts on its own.

These steps are outlined here for you to reference: Update your Apple Watch - Apple Support


We look forward to hearing back from you with an update.


Kind regards.
