WatchOS 4.1 seems much smoother on series 0. I can’t however get Music streaming to work over WiFi. Maybe it’s not available for series 0.

Yeah, I have 11.1 on my phone. And 4.1 on my Watch.

I was just wondering if I could downgrade back down to 11.0.1 without making my watch unusable.

Basically, are watchOS 4.1 and iOS 11.1 compatible?
 
4.1 really is MUCH faster. Dictating responses to messages is viable again. Apps seem to open significantly faster than 4.0. Very encouraging for a beta!

Yes! But....

The WatchOS3 dock was good for that. WatchOS 4 goes with the dock to basically keep some stuff in memory and switch between them like a dock on ipad or Mac. They want you to use complications now instead of glances or the dock for info.

You can always set the dock to show 10 apps of your choosing and not show recents.

I guess you mean 11.1? Doesn't seem like it. For some reason the update is showing for me. I'm on 11.0.1 and I don't even have the watchOS Beta Profile installed anymore.. I have no clue why the update is showing for me, it's rather annoying. I tried to re-download the beta profile and remove it again but its still showing..
 
Well, I’m watchOS 4, trying to delete some messages from my watch would crash the app, and sadly this still exists in 4.1.

I have quite a few messages that I cannot get rid of.

Sigh.

For crashes, you really should send a bug report to Apple via bugreport.apple.com following the instructions to capture and include both a sysdiagnose and messages log files so they can investigate it.

Instructions for doing both are linked to on the bug report submission page once you select watchOS. It does take a little bit of time and you'll need to connect your iPhone to iTunes to obtain the log files from the Watch, but the instructions Apple provides for doing it are quite good. For messages logging it'll get you to install a logging profile and enable logging via the new menu in Settings > Logging > On on the Watch, reproduce the issue, then Settings > Logging > Collect Logs, then follow the instructions to sync the logs to the iPhone and then collect them via iTunes.
