Can’t paid Apple Watch, says phone software needs updating
I have an iPhone 6 and am trying to pair it to an Apple Watch 2. While pairing it tells me to update the phone software still although i have already done this (12.4.1)
Any ideas?
thank you

It’s actually the same error I can see. Just before it starts unpairing, a box pops up for a split second saying that the phone software needs updating.
i recorded this and froze the image as attached
Thanks for the reply.
I’ve got a different problem now. When I pair them by scanning the spinning globe, it tells me the watch software needs updating and gives me the choice of updating it or skipping and which ever I pick it then unpairs the watch....
I don’t know what version it is running, I just bought it second hand
If the watch is running watchOS6 then you need a phone that has ios13 or higher.
Which version of watchOS it the watch running?
What error messages are you receiving?
Did the the person you bought it off remove the activation lock?,if not then you won't be able to pair the watch with your phone.
No, idea. I bought it off a (professional) seller on eBay
Ok, thank you very much
