iOS 16 Watch “Update Required” But Unable To Install Profile

[Mr. Awesome]

Hey everyone,

Curious to see if anyone else is experiencing this. I installed the iOS 16 Developer Beta, and I’m now presented with this screen upon opening the Watch app:

However, after I download the beta profile for the Watch, I can’t install it as I can’t get past this screen. Probably just a logical oversight on Apple’s part, but I thought I’d check to see if anyone else had this problem while I submit a bug report.

did you figure this out? it's pretty frustrating, though aware it's a beta so these things happen ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Almost certainly the same issue as:

Also hoping to find a workaround (if I need to, I'll revert to iOS 15 to get the watch updated first?).

I got it! You just tap the watch in the list! It already has a check mark next to it, which is what was throwing me off, but simply tapping the watch list item opens up an update dialog.

Well you should do is update the subject of this thread to iOS 16 data it’s not launched live yet
