Hi


If you experience issues at or before the "verifying" stage, then it may help to follow these steps.


However: do not interrupt your iPhone or watch if the process has already reached "installing". Note that you may need to scroll up on your iPhone screen to see the current status.


On your iPhone, close the Watch app along with all other open apps (double-press on the Home button, swipe up on the previews).


If you have not yet done so, first update your iPhone to the latest software:


Restart both your iPhone and your watch, turning both off together, then restarting your iPhone first:


Try updating again, being sure to follow all of the steps here:
