Black sports band - wrist irritation

Are there any reports of this and what’s the solution here? Can I get a replacement band? I have cleaned my band many times with antibacterial wipes and hat doesn’t seem to help.

Apple Watch Series 6, watchOS 7

Stop wearing the band and get a different model band. It appears you have an allergic reaction to something in the current band.


You might want to try a support call to Apple for a refund, but they may not be able to provide one.
