Cant Add a Card to Apply Pay

[DavidLynch]

Anybody else having issues with Apple Pay on the Watch? Whenever I try to add a card it says it can't find the watch and asks if I'm in airplane mode. No other issues. I've been installing apps and messing with settings from the phone.

EDIT: Specifically it says: Could not connect to apple watch: Make sure your apple watch is nearby, powered on, and not in airplane mode.

I only get this message when trying to add a card.

Happened to me too. I had to reboot my iPhone before it worked.

Thanks. This solved the problem for me too.

I tried this with TD Bank and was advised they'll be supporting this next week (it works on iPhone & iPad).

My watch does not see my cards, even after a reboot. The watch is set to mirror the phone.

Hmm.

I had to call my bank to verify something. They never said what. But its working now.

Hmm.

It's mirroring your passbook not your Apple Pay.

You have to re-add whichever card you want to the watch. Just like with the iPad; Apple Pay has to be authorized on each device that can support it per card.

Ah! The app wasn't clear. Thanks!
