Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
Hello, I have recently upgraded to this latest UK watchOS 8.5.1 on my series 3 Apple watch. Since the update the app home screen on my watch are flickering large and small so that I can’t actually click on any app and use it and it is also rapidly loosing battery (after full overnight charge it’s dead after 8 hours without any app usage).
Please help! Thanks, Nick
First, make sure the Zoom feature is turned off:
Use Zoom on Apple Watch - Apple Support
The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:
How to restart your Apple Watch - Apple Support
Restart your iPhone - Apple Support
If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This should result in no loss of data. It deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.

Hello, thank you for your guidance, which I have followed and completed all 3 steps; however unfortunately the apps screen is still flickering and so these steps haven't worked.
What do you suggest now?
Thanks, Nick
