Downgrading from iOS 17 to 16 affect Apple Watch?
I downgraded from iOS 17 back to iOS 16 and I noticed that my Apple Watch is not pairing back to my iPhone. Would the downgrade cause this issue?
Apple Watch Series 7, watchOS 9
Question marked as
but we can tell you that if the Watch updated to OS10 you are stuck with it and your choices are
- Put phone back on iOS17 beta, or
- Send the Watch back to Apple for a paid-for reset, that is Apple repair service, not Apple Store, or
- Don't use the Watch til iOS17 is released
