Why aren't my Apple Watch screenshots appearing on iPhone?

IOS. 18.2, AW S8 and 9. iPhone 15 Pro.

screenshots don’t appear in Photos on AW or phone. Have restarted both. Reset network settings. Unpaired and paired AW. All worked fine until about the time I updated to 18.2.

right now Apple is investigating.

Anything obvious I’m missing? s

One obvious thing you haven't mentioned is iPhone, Watch app, My Watch tab, General, enable screen shots, on.

Thanks. That was one of the numerous things I (and the Apple person checked. It was enabled). Even tried turning it off and back on.

The same issue occurs on both my watches, a S8 and a S9. Other things e. g., heart rate, oxygen, changing watch faces, texts seem to sync fine on the GPS and the cellular watch. Photos on my iPhone show up on watch. But not in the other direction.

the next option is to restore the phone.
