Apple Watch Walkie Talkie not Working

I have an Apple Watch SE (running 9.5.2) and I'm trying to invite my friend with an Apple Watch 3 (running 8.5.2) but neither of us receive the invitations on our watches. We both have FaceTime enables and our phones are both on IOs 16. Any ideas why the invitation isn't working and how we can fix it?

If everything is setup right according to:

Use Walkie-Talkie on your Apple Watch - Apple Support

And see the 'Get help' section.


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:

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.

If you tried all the steps above, but still need help, contact Apple Support.
