Hello everyone. I have a Series 8 on WatchOS 9.2 and i can’t activate Siri when i raise my wrist and speak. It used to work very well but for some time(also on WatchOS 9.1) it hasn’t been working. It is rarely working at the moment. Hey siri is disabled and Raise to Speak is enabled. Thanks in advance.

Only thing I would do is to restart your watch. This has happened to my dad's Apple Watch a couple of times in the last month. I haven't experienced it because I don't use Siri all that much, so I guess I haven't noticed on my own watch.

Thank you :) I am going to try it.
 
Mine is fine.. same setting as you. I bring the Watch right up to my face if that helps.. not the usual wrist flick to see time.

I've noticed on my SE, that if any part of my sleeve is touching or covering even a fraction of the screen, the Raise for Siri feature almost never works. Once I totally clear the sleeve, and retry, it then works.
Just my experience.

Thank you, I will pay attention to that detail.
