I'm unable to connect my Apple Watch Series 9 to my iPhone 16 Pro

After getting the new IPhone 16 pro i updated the software to my Iwatch series 9, and the Bluetooth connection is not working. I took it to Apple Store and iI was told to wait for the next software update, but at this point as my IWatch is not connected to my phone not sure how I am going to get a notification that there is new software to update. They were even not able to get a diagnosis of the watch as it was not connecting.

Hello,

You might try a soft restart: Press and hold both the side button and Digital Crown until the screen turns black and the Apple logo reappears, then release both buttons. Your watch might take a few moments to restart.

(Also restart the iPhone in the same way)

If this not works, you might try to reconnect to the watch: iPhone —> Watch App —> All watches (top left corner of the screen) —> Press on i (right side of the selected watch) —> Unpair Apple Watch.

Make sure that you have a backup for everything that you have on the watch and unpair the connection.

Repair the watch with the iPhone.

Hope this will be useful.
