Apple Watch Update Errors

I am having problems updating my Apple Watch. Anybody else in the same boat? I am connected to wi-fi, my watch is on the charger and is at 100% battery and it is in range of my Apple Watch.

I keep getting the error message: "Unable to Verify Update - The Watch OS update couldn't be verified because you are not connected to the internet."

Has anybody else had this error and were they able to get around it? Thanks!

Yes I am having the same problem


If you are trying to install watchOS 3.1.1, note that the update has been pulled back.


Apple has issued the following statement:


"A very small number of Apple Watch customers experienced an issue while installing watchOS 3.1.1, so as a precaution we've pulled back the software update. Any customers impacted should contact AppleCare, but no action is required if the update installed successfully. We are working on a fix for an upcoming software update."
