Q: unlock iPhone to view icon
For the last week or so, apps on my Watch that were working fine (example, Weather), now show the iPhone icon and say to unlock iPhone to view. Nothing changes if the iPhone is unlocked and right next to the Watch. I haven't changed any settings. I've rebooted both phone and watch. I haven't unpaired as yet. Any ideas? Thanks in advance
