WatchOS 2.0 Beta 3

anyone tried to sync a Apple Music, Apple curated playlist (when made available offline)? Do they appear to sync in the Apple Watch App, music section ? Or can you only still sync user generated playlists ?

Every single playlist is available to be synced, even those curated by Apple. I just went to the Watch app and the whole list of all my playlists was there available.

Sweet !!! that was a major miss in watch OS1.X
 
Can someone report this bug. Messages crashes every time you select the "Unknown" list of iMessages. If anyone wants to try this out for themselves, on your iPhone go to and turn on Settings/Messages/Filter Unknown Senders - On

Make sure your watch mirrors your phone, with regards to message settings, then give it a shot!
 
I'm not sure if this had been mentioned yet. I noticed this today while at home and connected to wifi, but watch not connected to my phone for some reason. There is a cloud icon in the corner instead of the phone.

Anyone else having the not connected to the phone icon showing up almost everywhere. The watch face and the setting glance both showing its connected to my phone. However if I go into any app including setting the not connected icon is showing in the statues bar. Even though it is pulling data from my phone at the time.

It has happened quite a few times with me. Dunno if it's the WiFi that's causing the problem!
 
OK, so iOS9 profile is loaded in  Watch app, have restarted both  Watch and iPhone, turned off iMessage and Diagnostics, but in software update I never see option for iOS9 for  Watch.

What am I missing (have done this numerous times but iOS9 never appears in Software update - just keeps displaying current firmware)
 
Im having issues syncing my watch with 9.0 beta 3. I get to the part where it asks for me to put my password in and it says they can not validate. This didnt happen with Beta 2. What am i doing wrong?

I don't understand what people mean by this. Apart from crap battery on Beta 1, I've had no issues with Watch OS 2 betas.

I think people are concerned with reports of bricked watches with no way to go back.

yes, this is happening to me too. doesn't seem to accurately reflect the connection status on apps like mail, calendar, weather.

i also had one instance last night where i looked down and the watch really was disconnected from the phone (if you go into the bluetooth settings on the phone, it said disconnected.) took rebooting the phone to connect back up again.

but the problem you state seems to just be a glitch where the red "not connected" icon is appearing even when the phone is connected
 
I'm quite happy about battery life in beta 3. Has been off charge for just over 24 hours and is still sitting at 27%.

Have you used it to track a workout during this period? I heard that has been draining the battery on beta 3.
 
is there any known problem sending heart rates/touch messages from OS2 to a OS1 Watch?
I'm getting messages from a OS1 watch in my OS2b3 watch, but the ones I send are not being received by the other watch.

I am able to send hearbeats from my OS2 Watch to my friends OS1 Watch which he has just purchased.

I didn't receive them on beta 2 however in this update (and after a clean restore) they do work.
