Updated my apple id profile pic but for some reason when I go to the settings app it has not as of yet been updated. I have reboot my watch to no solution. Does anyone know?
 
I didn’t know the watch actually shows your profile picture. It never showed up for me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It's at the top of the settings app, similar to how it is on iOS and macOS. The previous few versions of watchOS had a bug that would always make the picture blank though. It was fixed in watchOS 6.2.5 so now you should see it.

OP, give it a few hours to refresh. It should show up eventually.

Ah right! I’ve scheduled it to update at night today, so will check in the morning tomorrow.
 
Does anyone know how to force this to update? I changed my profile pic recently. My MacBook Air, iPad Pro, and iPhone shows latest pic, yet Apple Watch is still showing the old one.
