Apple Watch Sensor burns Recently purchased a cellular Apple Watch series 7 and after a few week of wearing I'm noticing that my wrist is red and begin to burn and blister on the skin where the sensor part sits, no marks where the strap is in contact. Is this a known problem and any solutions?

Apple Watch keeps unpairing during initial set up I just purchased a new Apple watch series 8 and began to pair it with my iPhone 12. I got past where it is paired and I tell it which wrist I wear the watch on, and it began doing something else that would take a few minutes and then it starts to unpair. It has done this several times, and I'm not sure what to do. I've shut down each and restarted, but still does the same thing. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Apple Watch dies after every outdoor workout, regardless of battery charge or workout length Over the past two weeks my Apple Watch Series 5, watchOS 9 / 9.1 has consistently died every time I return home from an outdoor workout and end that workout. It seems to be related to the Apple Watch reconnecting to WiFi but is also Fitness-related, as this does not occur when I return home normally - i.e. without a workout involved. The watch battery starts close to 100% for every workout, and the length of the workout does not matter - I have had the same experience with 5K, 8K, and 16k runs. After a 7K run this morning, I checked battery life while 200 meters away from my house - it showed 87% left. When I walked onto the front terrace, it died and then gave me the Power Reserve message, showing suddenly only 10% battery life remaining. I have restarted the watch, tried upgrading to the latest watchOS, and even changed the Fitness app I was using (from RunKeeper to Strava) to no avail. This is a particularly impactful bug, as my workouts, while saved on the Apple Watch, don't then sync to the third-party app, and I am unable to track progress, routes, etc. Thoughts? Fixes? Anyone else encountering this?
