Hello evacole168,


Without knowing the error you're receiving it's pretty hard to provide a solution to it. With that said, you can try the following to get the Apple Watch up to date:


  1. Update your iPhone for the latest fixes: Update your iPhone or iPad
  2. Restart both devices:
    1. Restart your iPhone
    2. Restart Apple Watch
  3. Then attempt to update the Apple Watch: Update your Apple Watch


If these steps don't resolve the issue, let us know if you continue to receive the same error message and what that error message says. This helps us to get on the same page.


Take care.
