Apple watch S4 call failed

Lucky you! Issues affect mainly Apple Watch + iPhone SE, like most posts here indicate (that’s my case, and many others too).

The issue appears to be fixed with the latest update. Can y’all please confirm and I’ll get my escalated ticket closed with Apple?

Please try this:

Restart your Apple Watch and unlock it with your iPhone. Maybe you missed to restart it.

The issue affects mainly (almost exclusively) Apple watches paired with iPhone SE 1gen.

Thanks for your Post, but this does not work for me..

By now, i restored my SE with a fresh Image of iOS 13.2 and the only device i paired is my Apple Watch 4.

After Pairing, i worked about three times and now i have the same issues again.

I am still in contact with Apple Support and try to get this Problems to the engineers and i won't accept the suggestion of the Support to pair my Watch with a "newer" IPhone because i love my SE.

Same problem. iPhone SE - iOS 13.2 / Apple Watch 4 Nike OS 6.1

Calls fail! Unpair, Pair, Set watches as new...

Nothing worked..

This problem starts after installed watchOS 6. On watchOS 5 and iOs 13 everything worked.

I tried almost anything by now.. For testing, I paired my Apple Watch with the iPhone SE of a good friend ( he has no Apple Watch) and tried to make calls a several times.. after pairing, everything worked a few times and 30 minutes later the sames issues appeard - calls fail!!

I´m going to contact the Support with this information..

Yes. Apple Support has only one advice. RESET, UNPAIR, and PAIR. Nothing more. I tried everything. I set AW as new. Nothing helped. I will call Apple Support again. Mainly, we have a lot of new emoticons. It really helps :(

So you fixed the problem with changing the Phone :D

Thanks that you told Support what you did with iPhone SE. Maybe your feedback will save others.

If you will have any info about your ticket ( I assume that it is still open ) please be so kind and report :)

Thanks

Its a shame for apple

i have the same issue call faills bad bluetooth connection siri not responding and more only happens in bluetooth

i paired to my iphone se a samsung galaxy watch and an lg urban second edition and they work excellent

please apple fix the issue of applecwatch asap

PLEASE

"I called the Apple Support and told them everything i tried in the last weeks and the Support promised me to send this case to the engineers for solving this bug."

I did the same and promised me the same. :)

I tried all the methods described above - nothing helped. He called the service department, they listened to me and promised that a more competent employee would call me back. So far no one has called back. Later I will call again!

I have the same problem with AW series 4 and iPhone SE, latest software. It’s not just the intermittent nature of the calls it’s affecting all use of apps or Siri on the watch, sometimes they work quickly but mainly they don’t work because they can’t connect to the internet (through the iphone) or Siri is slow to respond or says “uh oh I’ve lost the connection, let me try that again” .

Everything worked perfectly until I updated to iOS 13 and WatchOS 6.

Ive gone through the resets and re-pairing and restored the iPhone from a fresh install but nothing. I reported it to support a few weeks ago but they were stuck.

This has really limited the use of the watch since iOS 13 came out :(

Considering that this isn’t a “minor” bug but a big, serious issue I think apple should provide an official answer. We IPHONE SE users were set aside by this insane update that made our products unusable.

Just got a cellular S5 a few weeks ago (running OS 6.1). Interestingly, I'm also using an SE (running OS 13.2.3). Same issue with calls failing--both when placing a call and when trying to answer.

I tried a different tack: I called AT&T for help. Explained the situation; on hold for a while. They had no ideas...said something about using Bluetooth or WiFi for calls. I told him that I wanted to make call w/o a phone or WiFi (which is why I got a cellular watch). Not helpful...
