Mickey and Minnie stop talking (saying the time), the "allow watch to speak time" option disappeared

Hi, I have come across some minor watchOS 6 issues, found a couple of work around, wondered if anyone else has struck these or other issues:

  1. Mickey and Minnie stop talking (saying the time), the "allow watch to speak time" option disappeared from sound and haptics watch configuration on iPhone. Any my and my wife's mickey mouse stopped talking, eventually got them working again by restating watch and switching mute and theatre mode on and off.
  2. On activity complication its showing an incorrect move number (way inflated) - its OK on the activity circle and OK once in the activity app but whenever a number appears for move on a watch face complication its way higher.
  3. Initially none of the new watch faces were showing as options on iPhone face gallery, I found restarting the iPhone fixed that.

Further to point 3. - move number on activity compilation too large, turns out that just for compilations it was showing KJ instead of Kcal, even though health app was set to Kcal, was resolved when I set health app to kJ and then back to kcal. Health app has totally changed so needed some exploring.

I have contacted Apple support. I spoke to an advisor and a senior advisor and nothing they suggested has worked.

I have tried the suggestions on this thread and none of them have worked for me.

I have an Apple Watch Series 3 connected to my iPhone X S max. Everything was working OK until I updated to iOS 13 and watchOS 6. Now nothing I do is fixing this Mickey Mouse (literally) issue.

I agree with the person who mentioned regression testing: it is quite apparent that Apple really needs to get their act together and learn how to properly regression test an update.

Maybe tomorrow’s iOS 13.1 update will fix this issue … hope springs eternal.
