WatchOS7 update problems

Thanks for the update. I was going to update the software this evening.... I guess I'll wait...

I'm still on 7.01... I was having problems until I shut off Auto-Update on my Apple Watch Series 3...

it's been 3 Days so far no issues although I'm not convinced... very weird...

I left my house this morning at 8:30 it's now 6:48 and I'm at 70% Battery.. with animated screens and Push Messages...

I've never had Auto-Update enabled, (on any device) yet had these problems whenever I left my house.

I updated to to 7.0.2 last night. Until I'm away from "remembered" WiFi, I won't be able to say if the issues are fixed, because it rarely happened when at home.

I have a 6 & am having issues with watch constantly locking while on my wrist & today I had the reboot issue! Gave an extensive rundown to a senior advisor who is sending report to the engineers. He’s supposed to call me back Thursday with their feedback

I unpaired watch, wiped it. Wiped my phone (11 pro max) restored phone from back up, re paired watch and restored from back up. Its been 3 days on 7.0.1with no reboot issues amd excellent battery life. I have not attempted the update to 7.0.2

yesterday i updated my watch os again to 7.0.2 . The issue not resolved , the reboot happen when i move out of my home

I've not had issues in a week or so. What I did was update to 7.0.1, reset to like new, removed all but one watch face, and restricted myself to only essential apps. Of note, I removed the Music app since I don't use Apple Music on my phone. I'd seen earlier in the thread somebody say the Music app was trying to sync old playlists and another person said it used > 8 GB of space. Suspecting its that app that might be an issue for many.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one! My Watch worked great before the update— I charged almost every other day! Now, I can't track my activities or sleep... or even tell what time it is, since I get the clock "loading" icon more than half the time I check the watch. I have to keep it on the charger at least twice in a day, and sometimes it doesn't even start up again for an hour or so. SOOOO FRUSTRATING to spend good money on a watch that Apple practically BROKE with software!!! I hope it's fixed soon.

How do you "remove" the music app? It's not an issue for me, and I don't use Apple Music, but don't see a way to actually remove the app from the watch. You swipe right and hit the X, but the app is still on the watch.

Battery don’t drain as bad but has reset 3 times so far today won’t track my movements which is the whole reason I got this device exercise stuff just have to go back to fit bit I guess cheaper and worked no stupid updated crap if it ain’t broke don’t fix it

This happened to me too when I updated. It switched on/off 3-4 times daily even while doing workouts, I brought the watch less than 3 months ago. So I exchanged the watch and got a new one - haven’t updated it yet. If I update it and it still restarts daily, I’m going to ask for a refund and just go with another watch company. Apple better fix this bug quickly or else will owe Apple users a lot of money.

Same issue :( After installing watchOs 7 the watch restart 5 to ten time per day. Assistance ask me to force restart, then to unpair and pair whit my iphone Xr ( Ios14 ) but problem was not fixed. Then i downloaded new iwatch ios 7.0.2 but problem was still there. So i force restart, unpair and pair again but problem was not fixed. Today i call again assistance, but the "first level" say to me that they should pass this problem to a second level which will call me tomorrow. Terrible experience.

I've also been trying since yesterday to update my watch with the latest software. Even when my watch "works," it "won't connect" for the update. I've tried on the charger and on my arm. Everything else is connected, so not sure why there is such a big problem! I've also tried rebooting several times.

To have access to the beta Watch OS you have to sign up at beta.apple.com

Follow the instructions. You will have to download a beta "profile" and install it on the iPhone to which your watch is connected.

The instructions are pretty clear at the above website.

My Apple Watch Series 3 Cellular is rebooting on its own several times daily even though it has been updated to watchOS 7.0.2. One the most horrible software updates for any products I’ve owned. Seriously making me consider looking to FitBit for a solution, not an idle threat as I loved my Pebble Watch whose DNA lives on at FitBit.

Mine was sent off to repair centre and is being returned back to me today as apparently they could not duplicate the problem!!! What a joke! It’s been rebooting itself up to 4 times every day. I’m not happy.
