Q: Apple Watch won't pair with phone Help!
HI all,
I just bought an Apple Watch and when trying to pair it with my phone all I get is a "phone software out of date" message. It's updated to 9.3.5..so Its up to date on everything. I have reset both devices multiple times, cleared out my Bluetooth memory, and done about everything else I could find online and nothing has worked. Is there's something I'm missing?
Apple Watch, iOS 9.3.5
