So this was fine - maybe even too sensitive for a while when I got the watch. Must be a recent android wear update, but now it is very difficult (borderline impossible) to get the watch face to light-up by raising my wrist (or turning my wrist, etc.). Used to be that it was pretty consistent that it somehow knew when I was raising my wrist to look at the watch, it would light-up. Even was a bit annoying when driving the car it would happen so often. Now I can't reliably "wake" the watch except by pressing the crown.

I checked, and the setting is definately enabled (Wrist Gestures is ON and Always On Screen is ON). Just doesn't seem to react.

I would love there to be some kind of "sensitivity setting" for this, but I haven't heard of it.

Anyone else seeing this problem? Any ideas to try and "fix it"?

Thanks,
AJ
 
I restarted the watch and the function went back to normal. Must have been caused by the latest system update.
