Apple Watch 8 pairing problem
When trying to pair new Apple Watch 8, I get a message on my phone (iPhone SE 2nd) that says “iPhone Out of Date, This Apple Watch requires a newer version of iOS.” I’m running iOS version 15.7. How do I pair my watch?

Thank you! I was confused by conflicting information; my phone said my iOS was up to date at 15.7 and watch instructions said that my phone required an operating system of at least 15.0.
Your phone needs to be running ios16,update your phone.
