Did raise to speak stop working in watchos10?

[MikeMcCollister]

I have my Apple Watch Series 9 running watchOS 11 and the raise to speak seems to be working much better.

Brand new series 10 GPS 42 mm, watchOS 11 and I get raise to speak to work maybe 1/10 of times. Haven't been using it at my old watch for a while, but I do remember that it had worked much better in the past.

Any comments from series 10 users about this?

I honestly forgot this existed until you mentioned it because it almost never worked for me.

Been using the crown press until very recently, and I wasn't getting consistent results with raise to speak until I pretended I was a mime talking into my wrist, hehe. The exaggerated gesture taught me that I simply hadn't been raising my arm high enough.

That mime comment was very helpful Thanks! But just raising arm high enough doesn't work for me. It seems that the movement has to be done very fast. That feels and looks stupid I'm sure it has worked better before, but at least now it works at this weird way. Just watch out that you won't hit yourself to the face!
