Apple Watch

Im the mornings my Apple fitness will not launch and other apps like peloton will not track my heart rate. The fitness app will not respond to touch to launch despite being able to unlock the watch and select the app. Siri command also does not work. After 20min-1 hour it just starts working. I try closing and restarting and turning off and on the watch

Apple Watch Series 10 Raise to Speak not working Wake on Wrist Raise is turned on. Software is up to date. Watch has been restarted. It only works if I say ‘Hey Siri’ before the command. What else can I try?

Apple watch ECG Does not Work When running the ECG app on my watch, touching the crown starts the countdown, but it keeps resetting to 30 seconds and never completes. I’ve tried resetting the watch, turning off AssistiveTouch, resetting my phone, and more—nothing worked. It worked fine a year ago, so something may have broken since. What should I do next?

fitness, heart rate, and workout apps stopped working last night (2/15/2023), watch series 4 Yesterday evening, after I took my watch off the charger, the fitness app stopped logging any activity. I didn't notice until bedtime, at which point I restarted the watch. After the restart, the fitness app shows nothing. Just a black screen when I start it. I've tried just restarting the app. Nothing. I've updated the watch (now at watch OS 9.3.1). Nothing. The heart rate app has no history, and won't take a reading. The workout app starts a workout (and reads my heart rate!), but dies when I end the workout. The usual summary screen appears, but the app dies before I can scroll to the end to hit the Dismiss button. All of the other watch functions seem to be working normally. Just not these three apps. Which are very important to me! I've also updated my phone (now at iOS 16.3.1, iPhone 11 Pro). Same behavior. Any hints?

Did you also try to unpair your Apple Watch and pair it again after that?

This will install a new version of watchOS, in case this is software related:
