Just curious if any of you are upset about the music app on this beta removing the ability to browse and play the music from the library on your iPhone?
I hit up Support and have a box showing up on my door tomorrow to ship my watch back and have it downgraded because beta 2 was so bad. But now the more I think about it I want that functionality back that watchOS 3 gives to control my music.
I would find it a shame if its permenantly gone, but not a deal breaker to stop me keeping on wOS 4, the AirPod improvements alone are worth it.
I thought the AirPod improvements are only tied to iOS 11 with the new controls. Is there something in watchOS 4 also?

not working for me, i've officially given up, I'm still stuck on beta 1 and haven't been able to update as all it says is could not connect to apple watch. I have tried everything and nothing seems to be working for meFor those having trouble connecting to watch from their iPhone.. Open the camera app on your watch, and then search for the update again. That worked for me.
iPhone Says, can not conect to apple watch
I hat this **** smartwatch. The badest Apple product ever
I've had GREAT luck with WatchOS Beta 2 and 3 so far. Yes, the updates have been a bit of a pain with 'can't find the watch' and failedupdates, but nothing monumental.
So far today, good 8 hours use, watch battery at 70% using Siri face. Nothing special turned off except gym equipment.
Beta 3 seems much smoother than Beta 2 thus far.
So beta software that you don't *have* to run is having issues and the automatically the Apple Watch becomes the worst Apple product ever?
I think your logic is flawed.

Do you use Apple Music by chance? Can you see what is currently playing with that face complication?
I noticed in ios11 beta 3, that the Apple Watch complication seemingly went back to "Apple Music" from what I saw in Beta 2 as "Now Playing". Neither of those complications would work with my S2 however. I expected Now Playing not to work as my watch doesn't have it available as a selection, but for a few seconds I was excited for iOS B3 and "Apple Music". Still no dice though.
My watch never shows what is playing, and I've just chalked it up to being either a) a long running bug, or b) incompatibilities with ios11 and WatchOS 3.
Mine spent more than 30 minutes Preparing, so I'd wait a little longer and see whether it goes on to Verifying. From start to finish my install took nearly two hours.
Mines now stuck on the Apple logo with circle dots screen after getting a “Apple Watch successfully updated” message on my iPhone.
