Seems it's important to keep your Apple devices up to date


Wondering if you need to update the iPhone's iOS to the latest compatible version available.

Eg: About iOS 13 Updates - Apple Support


Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

What to do: If your Apple Watch isn't connected or paired with your iPhone - Apple Support

or

What to do: If you can't pair an Apple Watch with your iPhone - Apple Support

or

May be your WatchOS version needs to be updated using your iPhone, before it can pair:

Update your Apple Watch - Apple Support


If needed:

Apple Watch - Official Apple Support


All the best :-)
