The Apple Watch is a device full of sensors and with a very advanced technology that works in a millimeter way. But it is also an accessory of the iPhone, which allows us to perform different tasks which would otherwise force us to take the Apple Watch out of our pocket or backpack. But as a device, it may experience performance problems. Most of the problems that we may encounter on a daily basis have an easy solution, especially those related to when the Apple Watch screen is black. From Actualidad iPhone We are going to try to solve the most common problems that arise when using an Apple Watch.
Fix problems with Apple Watch
If you find a problem that is not in the list, write it in the comments and we will try to offer you a solution.
Apple Watch has a black screen
If the Apple Watch screen is completely black and the buttons on the Apple Watch do not respond to any interaction, it is most likely that the device is turned off or does not have enough battery as to show on the screen that it needs to be loaded in order to function.
The first thing we have to do is press on the side button and wait to see if the Apple Watch turns on. Otherwise, we can restart it by pressing the side button and the menu wheel for 10 seconds. If this method doesn't work, the device has a completely drained battery.
Apple Watch shows black screen but time is green
If your device is showing the black screen, along with the green time and does not respond to any of the side buttons to offer the application menu or access to contacts, the Apple Watch is in battery saving mode.
Battery saving mode can be activate manually when Apple Watch reaches 10%. At that moment the device shows us a message informing us to put it on charge or to activate the battery saving mode. At that time, the device will only show us the time, losing touch communication with the device, becoming an expensive wristwatch.
Apple Watch shows a black screen with green time and a red lightning bolt icon
If our device shows us the black screen showing the time and an icon with a red ray inside, as in the previous case, the Apple Watch is in battery saving mode. In this mode, all communication with the iPhone has been lost, so we can only check the time.
In this battery saving mode, the consumption of the watch is at a minimum, but there comes a time when we have to load it and that is when the red icon appears with lightning inside. To be able to exit the battery saving mode, you must restart the device by pressing the side button and the wheel button together for 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears.
Apple Watch restarts with black screen and I hear voices
If the screen of our Apple Watch is off but we hear voices that come from it, calm down, we are not crazy, simply we have activated the Voice Over accessibility option. To deactivate it we have to go to the Apple Watch application or click on the wheel and ask Siri to deactivate it.
Apple Watch screen and buttons are unresponsive
If our device is showing content, the screen is on, but we cannot get it to respond to the screen or the physical buttons, the first thing we can do to fix it is to restart it. To do this we have to press the side wheel together with the Apple Watch button for 10 seconds, until the Apple Watch logo appears again. If once you have rectified the Apple Watch and both the screen and the buttons still do not respond, the only solution is to take the device to an Apple Store.
When turning on the Apple Watch it does not go beyond the apple
If we try to turn on our Apple Watch, but the device does not pass the apple or does not stop restarting, the first thing we can try is to restart it manually, by pressing on the side wheel and button of the Apple Watch for 10 seconds.
If the device still bypasses the block, the best thing is to take it to an Apple StoreBecause for whatever reason, maybe a boot system line is causing problems. Unfortunately we cannot connect it to our Mac and reinstall the firmware from our home.
