Apple Watch users are once again experiencing an always-on display bug showing the wrong time after daylight saving time changes. The issue, first seen in 2018 with the Series 4, resurfaced in 2021 and has recurred this year, particularly affecting European users due to earlier time shifts. When the watch is in rest mode, it displays the old time, but activates to show the correct time upon interaction.
Users have reported the problem on Reddit and X, with some sharing videos. Apple confirms the bug and offers three simple fixes: switch watch faces temporarily, restart the device, or wait until midnight for automatic correction. The recurring nature suggests ongoing testing gaps despite prior fixes.
