I have an aluminum AWS4 running 5.01. Today, I noticed that the Wake on Crown Up feature randomly stops working as expected until the watch is restarted. The issue is that turning the crown up turns on the screen but it does it as if you tapped on the screen instead of gradually increasing the brightness and providing haptic feedback in the process as it's supposed to. Once I restart the watch it works as expected but then at some point a few hours later it stops working again. I’ve checked the setting and it’s enabled. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

At one point today I also noticed that I couldn’t force touch on the app list to change it to the honeycomb view. Had to restart the watch to fix this as well and saw some info online from other people who’ve experienced this as well.

Is watchOS this buggy in general or are these typical .0 release issues? This is my first Apple Watch.
