Disappointed with Apple Watch Ultra 2 being very very buggy.

1) unable to update software on my Apple Watch despite following the given instructions, like should be connected to charging & battery % > 50 and should be connected to WiFi.

2) Activity app showing incorrect stand hours eg. 13 hours.

3) When I connect my Apple Watch to my iPhone 13 Pro HotSpot. I get continuous popups like "Share hotspot to watch?".

4) Altimeter showing incorrect information in the flight.

6) While switching watch faces, the seconds "SS" get overlayed as a layer on other watch faces.

I have the Apple Watch Ultra 2 and have not run into any bugs that I have noticed.

Will try and answer your questions below:

  1. You can update your Apple Watch every single time by updating it from the IPhone and running the Watch app ➡️ General ➡️ Software Update.
  2. Was that 13 hours of standing or is it showing 1 stand count per hour over 13 hours? This will give you a stand count of 13.
  3. You cannot connect your Apple Watch to a Personal Hotspot from your iPhone. This is not a bug. Your Apple Watch is already connected to your iPhone over Bluetooth.
  4.  The altimeter works by measuring the air pressure around the watch. When you start climbing, the air pressure decreases and the watch can tell how much elevation you've gained. The new feature is available in the Activity and Workout apps, and can also be added as a complication on the watch face. Not completely sure how the altimeter would reach to an AirPlane’s cabin pressure. There are other free Altimeter apps that are available in the App Store. You can get one of those and try it out the next time you are traveling.
  5. Not sure what you meant by “SS” get overlayed.
