iPhone 15 Pro Max Cannot unlock Apple Watch Ultra 2 when iPhone 15 Pro Max is unlocked

[K4LK]

Apple Watch Ultra 2 is on my wrist and unlocked with passcode. Go to the Watch app on iPhone 15 Pro max, tap Settings > Passcode, tap “Unlock with iPhone”, it prompts to enter the passcode on the watch. I enter the watch passcode on the watch and see a spinning ball, it disappears and the "Unlock with iPhone" is still off. First reported to Apple with sysdiagnose on Oct 8. Running iOS 17.2 beta 1 and watchOS 10.2 beta 1. Still broken. My submittal is still open. Anybody else experiencing this?

Thanks.

When I had this in the past, I had to un-pair and re-pair the watch and then it started working. This was on my S7.

Has it worked prior to these betas?
I’m running the latest release versions and never had an issue

Has not worked since I bought the two devices. Thanks. I might try the un-pair & re-pair suggested by gwang73.

Unpair / Pair fixed the problem. Thanks.
