Hi Mark, I reboot my watch every day also and I still have this problem. I can be anywhere in my watch and it will go to sleep for no reason.

Hello, I have my watch to never lock unless I take it off my wrist, and it does just that. I have never had it lock inadvertantly unless I took the watch off. Thanks.

Re: Apple Watch randomly locking itself.
Hey all, I know that my watch will lock when I drop my wrist, or if I flip my wrist away from me. I believe this behavior is correct. I admit it does lock before I’m ready sometimes, but I’ve usually moved my wrist slightly, and I’m again assuming the watch thinks I’ve dropped my wrist out of viewing position. > On May 24, 2018, at 11:49 AM, M.

There is and it is set to I think 15 seconds on my watch and it locks whenever it wants. Mark, you must be the only person I have heard from who doesn't have the issue of the watch randomly locking.

RE: Apple Watch randomly locking itself.
Hello All, This is very interesting. As far as I am aware, I have never experienced this bug on my Series 2. Nor, it seems, can I reproduce it. I have the latest software installed. I have wrist detection enabled. So curious. Perhaps I do not fully understand the nature of this bug. However, in my experience, the watch behaves exactly as expected.

RE: Apple Watch randomly locking itself.
Every Apple Watch owner/user should report this with outrage to Apple Accessibility since this has existed for a long time and no update has addressed this. Sometimes I press the digital crown to unlock my watch and before I can even move my hand to touch it it locks again or I'm in the middle of doing something and it just locks. This is probably one of the most frustrating things apart from the sluggishness of the series 2 with Watch OS 4. This got a bit better for me after doing a factory reset, but it's still a pain in the neck. Also, I use my watch for swimming in the pool and when the watch is wet and fingers are wet it's a pain also to use it, I sometimes try for 2 minutes to tap the "EEnd" button to end my swim and the watch locks and does all sorts of things except register my double tap. And no, it is at that point not in waterlock any more. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Malcolm Parfitt Sent: Thursday, May 24, 2018 9:48 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Apple Watch randomly locking itself. Hello Anna, Thanks for your prompt reply. I agree with you it is frustrating! At least I am not alone in my view or situation. Apparently sighted people have the same issue according to a friend of mine. I wonder if disabling Wrist Detection would have any affect on the problem though it would compromise the security of the watch. Malcolm.

Re: Apple Watch randomly locking itself.
Hello, Malcolm, I've had this problem with my previous watch and the Series 3 one I got last fall. I have no idea why it happens, unfortunately. It's certainly frustrating.

Apple Watch randomly locking itself.
Hello, I wonder if anyone has experienced the problem I have with my Apple Watch. If I unlock the watch before I can accomplish what I was going to do, say starting a workout the watch has locked itself for no apparent reason. This problem of the watch locking itself is quite regular and has no logical cause as far as I can determine. Before I go on a wild goos chase, reset the watch and restore it as a new device in the hope it will resolve itself has anyone found a way around this locking problem. Thanks.
