Long press not working

[Melo_d]

When I long press side button, it only gives me options to choose which app I want to use.every time.

What do you want to happen?  There is a "Press & Hold" shortcut for the Sense side button.  You can turn that off in Settings.  Maybe what you are aiming for is just the short press, or the press and hold for 10 seconds.  If it is the reset you want, keep holding when you get those options.

Hi @Melo_d  - as @JohnnyRow  says you can configure what you want to happen when you long press in the watch Settings menu.

To make sure you are using the button well try a few short presses to turn on and off the display, then do a longer press.

There is also a double press, configurable in the watch Settings.

You can't just set the shortcut to use Alexa.  You have to have set up Amazon Alexa, or Google Assistant, as your Voice Assistant first in your phone app via profile pic > Sense > Voice Assistant
