Good morning all!

I’m having an issue with my Apple Watch series 4 as of yesterday. Im running watchos 6 beta 2. I did not have any issue like this with beta 1.

I can get to the screen that has all my apps layed out but cannot get to my watch face that shows my complications.

Instead, when I do my normal steps to get to the watch face instead I’m presented with a small clock only showing on the middle of the screen with little dots that move all around the clock. The watch will do this until it drains the battery.

I am also able to use all the apps as well, start a workout. The workout syncs with the Apple Watch. Use any other app that’s on my watch.

It’s just this little clock face is stuck on my screen where my watch face complication usually shows.

I’m pretty savvy with Apple Watch. I’ve been an owner of them since series 0 and watchOS 1.

Pictures attached.

Please help?

Can someone tell me what this clock stuck on the screen means?

Thank you in advance!

It's stuck on trying to load the watch app.

If I were you, I'll go to Watch app on iPhone and try to move a very simple watch face to replace the current watch face (by delete all other faces but the very simple one). Reset the watch and see if it helps.
 
I’m sorry but which watch app?

It does this for hours until the battery runs out!

Does this mean one of the apps on my Apple Watch is not compatible with watchOS 6 and causing this?


Thanks!

The watch app (not *a* watch app) is the one that shows the watch face.
Go to Watch app on iPhone. on My Watch tab click edit My Faces and delete everything but the simplest watch face. let it sync to the watch then restart the watch and see if it helps.
