If the issue seems to be restricted to one app, avoid using it or find an alternative.
There may be an issue with the app rather than your Apple Watch.
patch your Apple Watch.
If your Apple Watch hasn’t been updated in a while, it can help to update watchOS.
Do this via the Watch app on your iPhone to see if it corrects the issue.
Resync your Apple Watch.
Try unpairing your Apple Watch from your iPhone then repairing it again.
You’ll need to restore it from a backup so it can be time-consuming but can fix screen issues.
Alternatively, try resetting it entirely and avoid restoring the backup.
If there’s a problem with the backup, you’ll only replicate the earlier issue.
If none of these fixes have worked, contact Apple Support.
