Smartwatch Touchscreen Not Responding
4.5
The watch turns on, but tapping or swiping the screen does nothing.
Symptoms
- Unresponsive touch
- Ghost touches
- Frozen screen
Possible Causes
- Water on screen
- Dirty sensor
- Digitizer failure
Step-by-Step Fix
1
Dry the Screen
Capacitive screens don't work well when wet or in high humidity.
2
Force Restart
Hold the side buttons for 10-15 seconds to force a reboot.
3
Clean the Edges
Dirt trapped under the bezel can register as a constant touch.
When to See a Technician
If the screen is cracked, the touch layer (digitizer) is likely severed.
