Since I installed One ui 8 for my Watch 6, on four occasions it has gone dark ... I can't get it to do anything. I need to shutdown and power up for it to start working again.

Any suggestions?

Seems to be with 3rd party watch faces. Mine did them same. I'm using the Samsung default face and it hasn't happened since. Instead of restarting your phone each time, just press and hold on the black screen and select a different watch face. That should get rid of the black screen until the next time it happens.

I did apply a Samsung watch face. So far, no problem.

Thanks and blessings.

Great!  Glad it's working for you.

I applied the new beta update this morning. I will try going back to my 3rd party watch and see if they fixed the black screen issue. 

Have a good day!

Mine has gone black as if it's off or frozen but it's not. I can use the drop down and swipe. Holding finger on the screen and either changing the face and then changing it back seems to work or just holding it to change face but then just tapping out if it without changing face.
