You mean while playing? The + to the left of the volume button adds it your library. Or you click the ... button to the right to have the options to add/remove to library, like or dislike.

Yes that is the one I meant, it was only showing the volume bar. I dunno if it was because I changed back from another country´s store, or if it was because I restarted the Watch, but now it is working as it used to.
 
I've update to GM gold on iphone and have the beta profile on my apple watch, but everytime I try to check for new watch os3 it says 2.xx is current version... what am I doing wrong?
 
ahhh ok... silly me, that explains it... doesn't seem like they'd make the profile available then but who am I :) Thank you for response!
Yeah, they've never done a public beta for the Watch, as there's no user-initiated downgrade ability, so you'd have to send your Watch in if the beta did something wonky.

Same thing happened with my watch. I just installed a different profile and was able to install OS3.
 
I installed the beta profile on the watch but it still shows im up to date. Any solutions? I tried restarting both the iphone and the watch.

Which beta profile did you install? If you installed the public beta profile, like people have said in this thread, there is no public beta for watchOS.
 
There are now new watch face colors: Ocean/sea blue and cocoa.

E: I think Sand Pink (or something like that) is also a new color.

Can you post screenshots of those and any other new colors if there are more?
 
AGAIN! :)

For all of you OS 3.0 beta testers:

Is it now possible to have a BT headset connected to the watch, so when you receive an incoming call and you answer it on the watch you'll get the audio in your BT headset?

This must be fixed, crazy that it's not yet possible. You don't want the call audio on your watch's speaker, of course you want it in a connected headset.

It's a convenience feature. :) You really don't want to be taking a lot of calls on your watch - you'll kill the poor little thing's battery in no time (data stream over wifi from the iPhone, BT stream to your BT headset). Yep...calls would run down your battery quite quickly.

You'll be able to test this yourself TOMORROW. :) Unless you don't actually have a watch yet? :)

Of course one wants this. The watch is just a client for the phone, if I take an action on my watch regarding a phone call it should be represented on the phone, at least when having a headset connected to the phone.

That's also different from what you just posted (having the headset connected to the phone vs watch).

Of course, the new Airpods could make all of this entirely different. They may actually support this scenario and switch devices during the call (switch to the iPhone when you get close enough to make the transition). That would actually be useful. :)
 
So they have completely gotten rid of the weather toggle for rain %, conditions and hourly temperature?
 
I don't frequently use the Camera function (to control the iPhone camera). When i tried it yesterday, it gave me the option to control either the native Camera app or Camera+, which I have installed. Is the ability to select different cameras new?

Certainly newer than watchOS 2. That's pretty cool.

On the WatchOS 3 GM I've been noticing that the Facebook Messenger app will not load. Anyone else having this issue?
 
It's not letting me install Watch OS3 at all. Every time I go to the watch app on my phone it says that version 2.2.2 is the current up to date.

Anyone else having issues with this?

I had a Facebook Messenger update today, wonder if that might have fixed it. Unfortunately I sold my watch and won't have one until (hopefully) Friday.
 
Thanks for this thread.. I thought Time Travel had gone the way of the Dodos.

If you also like the feature then look at enabling it because it's a) not very prominent as a setting and b) turned OFF by default meaning Product Management really wonder if it's too much hassle to be worth it :p
