Apple Seeds Third Beta of watchOS 6.2.5 to Developers

[MacRumors]

Apple today seeded the third beta of an upcoming watchOS 6.2.5 update to developers, two weeks after releasing the second beta and over a month after releasing the watchOS 6.2 update that added in-app purchases to the Apple Watch App Store.

watchOS 6.2.5 can be downloaded for free through the dedicated ??Apple Watch?? app on the iPhone by going to General > Software Update. To install the new software, the ??Apple Watch?? needs to have at least 50 percent battery, it needs to be placed on a charger, and it needs to be in range of the ??iPhone??.

There is no word yet on what features might be included in watchOS 6.2.5, if any, and nothing new was discovered in the first two betas, suggesting it focuses on bug fixes and other under-the-hood improvements.

Yea same here except for no I'm not, ha. I get a full day if I force close workout after I use the app. If I don't, I charge twice in a day. Its only been this way this beta and not a big issue. I will test again this update to see what happens.

Will the watch also have the COVID API in watchOS 6?

Wonder if they’ll fix the issue preventing me from initiating playing music on my iPhone from my watch. Only works if I start playing something I bought off iTunes. It’s a well documented issue and it’s not only happening to me.

I am waiting till Watch OS7. All the updates so far for Watch OS6 add absolutely nothing.
