Hi, I have an odd situation. I am trying to update my AW2. I have updated iPhone to iOS 13.4 and my AW2 runs the latest previous watchOS. The update downloads but fails to install. The process fails during Verification. I tried rebooting both iPhone X and AW2. I deleted the update and redownloaded it again. No use. It still fails. Does anyone have the same issue?
Thanks andy90e... this worked for me. I had tried everything (restart phone, watch... even un-pair, wipe watch, re-pair, etc.).
In the end, I turned off Bluetooth and WiFi on my phone, then went into the watch and selected update. It took a while for it to download and verify the update but it did install.
FWIW, when I re-connected the phone to the watch via bluetooth it threw an error saying the update didn't work... but it did. I think that was a replica of the phone being confused since it couldn't see the watch and had been trying to update.
Did not work for me
Awesome glad it worked 😃
I tried to install both 6.0 and 6.2 on my AW2, using all suggested work arounds & still won't update
This worked for me. Thank you.
I tried to upgrade via Apple Watch as well. It still failed. I can’t upgrade it through either of the devices. Neither via iPhone nor via my way watch. It’s very frustrating. Pls help.
I can't upgrade still. None of the approaches worked for me (upgrading from watch doesn't work).
Apple is turning into HP or Dell by trying to ignore problems instead of addressing them :(
I installed it from my Apple Watch app. Is that what you are talking about?
How do you install it from the Apple Watch? I’ve never done that before. I’ve always used my phone.
On the watch go to settings and then install update
Finally worked for me.
Yes. Be sure that your iPhone OS has been updated first. The watch won’t update if the IPhone OS is not current.
If it works for you, do it👍
BE SURE YOUR PHONE IOS IS CURRENT FIRST!
It won’t work if phone IOS out of date🤔.
This is the only thing that worked for me, and I found the suggestion on some other posts.
Thanks all, finally got it to update when the next update was launched. All good now.
Same issue, no luck on our Series 1 watches w/o radios from iPhone X and 11pro
Tried deleting update from the I Phones and initiated from watch with no success.
My guess is this has to go with iOS 13.4
Apple Watch 2 fails to upgrade to watchOS 6.2
