If your Apple Watch is not double-clicking to Pay, it might be due to a few issues: settings, watchOS needing an update, or a glitch. First, ensure that Apple Pay is correctly set up in the Watch app on your iPhone. Check if Wrist Detection is on, as it's required for Apple Pay. If everything seems in order but the problem persists, try restarting your Apple Watch. Still no luck? Ensure your device's software is up to date. If the issue continues, contacting Apple Support may be your best option.
