WatchOS7 update problems

Your sentiment could be my exact words. People who r saying turn off this or that feature..... well then the watch doesn’t mean as much to me. I RELY on the fitness stuff in particular and cringe at the thought of losing any of that data. I’ve worked hard to close rings every day since May

This is happening to me too, ever since updating to watchOS 7. It seems to only happen when I’m out and about (doesn’t happen at home). Absolutely zero issues with this watch until I updated a few days ago.

My apple watch series 5 updated to OS7 as well and can’t even hold the 100% battery for more than 12 hours now! It used to be able to last me almost 2 full days. So aggravating. I am hoping there will be bug fixes in the new update to fix this issue.

I haven’t been able to get past 6.2.6 always wants me to delete almost anything to create room. What’s the point of I have to remove everything that I use?

Whatever, my series 6 should be here in two more days.

I’m having the same issues, too. Very disappointing and frustrating! I have a brand new series 3 that was just replaced because of a screen default, and the battery life I get now after the new update is a joke! The random reboots are annoying, as is info not displaying when it should.

I’m having the same issue on my series 3 ever since updating to os 7. I see 7.0.1 is out. Any word on whether this has a fix? With as many people affected you would think apple would acknowledge the problem and give an ETC for a fix.

Also in the new watch7 it has a new monitoring surface, but whoever has the s3 can not get them nor can someone who has a newer version send them. sorry for my english but i am translating with google translation

I am experiencing the same issue as everyone else on this thread. After updating my Apple Watch 3 to iOS 7, the device kept crashing and rebooting all day long. The battery is draining like crazy now after I updated it.

Apple, please fix!

I am having similar issues and on the Apple Watch Series 4 and noticed all health related apps and sensors are out of service. I did briefly get intermittent use of the heart rate monitor but it was very sporadic. Use of the EKG monitor causes a kernel panic or crash. HELP

Same it worked great till update and I don’t have 300.00 dollars to buy a new 6 watch so I’m out it crashed 3 or 4 times a day an I’ve done everything they have said to do that don’t correct nothing so basically to the junk drawer I can’t use it nor reliable and Apple does this to get you to buy the new product how they forget we just went through a major shutdown and money is not something a lot of us have.

Apple Watch series 3 update 7, is made by apple to damage your series 3 watch. The want you to buy the series 5 or 6 !!!

reason #1- you can not reinstall update #6 !

peoples think back !!! Apple did the same with the iPhone, years ago. Apple forced a update on the older iPhones, and after the update, theses old iPhone did not work anymore.

items are overpriced, and not more made in USA. Apple is too greedy. In Europe Apple is avoiding to pay sales taxes.

and now apple willingly damaging our series 3 watches. Did you ever Troy to trade a series 3 watch in for a newer model ? Only up to $100, but has to be in new condition, everything else you get less.

peoples is a scam !!! 09/29/2020

do not update your series 3 watch with the iOS 7 !!

My Apple Watch 3 has started going to a black screen every day at 11:30am. The only way to get it awake is to push the side button and it reboots. It takes about 5 minutes, then says revalidating cards. Also losing phone connection and asks if I want to connect via my wife's iPhone SE. Battery is also running out by 17:00 each day. All this is after the upgrade to watch OS 7.0.

Do something about this please Apple.

I am facing this issue too! It’s so annoying. Surprisingly, the series 3 is still on sale and I’m just wondering why anyone would purchase that. That’s why we have the SE now. Good strategy, but what about the older Apple watch users? It cannot unlock my Macbook too sometimes. Is someone from Apple actually reading this thread/working on a fix?

I do not have apple car play, and my series 3 is rebooting . So the car play theory is bs.

don’t blame it on someone else !!! Apple damaged our watches.

did your watch work without problems before you got the 7 update ???

there you have it .

I contacted apple last night (chat) and they told me they didn't have any complaints about this issue, then proceeded to tell me they had one person earlier in the day with the same issue... and if I already tried to erase and reset and it didn't work then I need to wait for a new update so... thanks Apple.... HUGE help....
