Hi, I believe you saw this question before, but I wasn't able to find the answer.

I'm trying to retrieve raw gyro data from watch. (Watch 3 Series, v 5.2.1)

The problem is that gyro is always unavailable. The property isAvailable is always false and there is no data.

Is it bug or not? Can someone clarify, please?

PS I know about the way to get data using DeviceMotion, but I really need Raw data.

And bonus question:

Is there a way to transform sensor data's timestamp to time interval from reference date?

The timestamp is the amount of time in seconds since the device booted.

The motion.isGyroAvailable method is supplied to check if your app is going to be able to use gyroscope data on that particular device.

If it is returning "false", that means gyroscope data is not available to be used. There is no solution or a workaround to bypass or ignore this check.
