And where exactly is that? The normal beta page doesn’t list Apple Watch beta.beta.apple.com
Sign up for the appropriate beta and follow the instructions.

Sooooo, those of us not devs, what do we do? WatchOS beta is only for dev accounts.

WatchOS doesn't have a public beta. But you can get tvOS beta there.
If you're a developer, download the watchOS profile onto your iPhone and install it from there.

There are options available out there to get a watchOS 6 beta profile.

I really don’t want to risk bricking my watch. Pretty sure that’s why they have dev only. Easier to fix phone or anything with a port. Watches are sealed up.

Get a dev account. Apple will fix your watch if a dev beta bricks it.

So glad to see that CarPlay is now buttery, smooth, functional, and random crashes and/or unexpected behaviour(s) have stopped - especially with respect to Spotify.

Actually, I just got the entire warning message from another user. There’s a VERY important piece that you left out. If you are on 5.3, you’ll be fine. If you are on beta 6, you have to update. Not sure how your message seems truncated and left out crucial data.

decypher44, thank you for posting the extra details for us... that extra info makes a big difference.... however... i did see this message in the Inbox of the apple feedback program and it does seem to match his original message and shows it was just posted in the inbox there today...

Thank you.
Its weird, I have to use Books or another app just to have the search function. Apple is trumpeting that iPad can replace the MacBook.....! But no such elementary feature?.

How do you see if a bug report is a duplicate?

Mine was working for a few hours. Now it’s messed up again.

So it was Apple leaving out the crucial detail then. Glad to know I’m not screwed. Lol.

I don't think you can at the time of logging it. In the past I just eventually got a notification email from Apple telling me that my case ref xxxxx had been closed as a duplicate.
Did this beta fix issues related to imessages and predictive text? I reported it to Apple with last beta update. It will choose weird replacement words instead of the most common ones. Also it continues to replace the word "the" with "the' " which is extremely annoying. I almost downgraded to 12.4 because of this. Can anyone provide information about this issue?

I didn't leave anything out.
Apple must have revised the release note as the screen grab I took was directly from their release notes. Nothing was edited out.
EDIT:
The official release notes for WatchOS beta 6 still show the original warning I posted earlier.

Looks like now.sorry if this was asked before. when do you all think public beta 5 be available?
Lol. Looks kinda cool actually.
So what if your watch is bricked and you just registered your UDID for dev software? Definitely missed that warning and now my watch won't pair and is completely unusable.... ****.
