Pixel Watch Touch Lock is now more locked down than ever, and some users aren’t happy

  • Wear OS 5.1 changes Touch Lock on the Pixel Watch to disable the crown as well as the screen.

  • Users can no longer scroll notifications or check Quick Settings while the feature is active.

  • Google support reportedly called the change intentional, but there’s no official confirmation yet.



Touch Lock used to be just a handy way to avoid accidental taps on your Pixel Watch, especially in wet environments. However, a recent update has kicked its functionality up a notch, and not every user is happy about it.


As reported by 9to5Google, Touch Lock’s behavior has changed in Wear OS 5.1. Previously, enabling the setting disabled the touchscreen while still letting you use the rotating crown to scroll through notifications or access Quick Settings. With Wear OS 5.1, Touch Lock now disables both the screen and the crown.
