Have you checked the notifications settings for the watch in the watch app? Also check the notification settings on your iPhone since there is a bug with iOS12 beta where by default Mail notifications are silent and or vibration is off. if you have your watch mirror your iPhone it could be because of this. Worth a try.

Trust me, I tried everything.
I have already opened bug report with Apple on this and support team reply fast. I already sent co-sysdiagnose. We will see...

I had the same problem as you and assumed it was a bug but found that notifications were disabled for email. Just on the off chance you didn’t check this try here:

iPhone watch app -> Notifications -> Mail -> Custom. Then enable the relevant settings for each mail account.

In my case it was both my accounts which had notifications disabled.

Other than that I’ve no idea.

Thanks, but I have all enabled. If I use custom settings or mirror from iPhone it doesnt work.

My problem was in iOS settings. The vibrate was off for some reason. I set them to quick vibrate and it woks fine.

WOW, that is great bug.
I don't use vibration at all on my iPhone, because everything goes directly to Watch. So I tried setup vibration for Mail and in Apple Watch app I setup "mirror my iPhone" and now it works :). Its very strange, because when I setup it manually in Apple Watch app it don't work either.
I will inform Apple in my bug report.

Thank you for this. It was driving me crazy. Hope it gets fixed soon as my watch takes ages to restart!

Hi can someone tell me how to have the Nike + app and workout app in the Siri watch face ? I have them checked off but they don’t appear in the Siri face ?

True but the Apple workout app should appear right ?

You meant you selected Workout to appear in Siri watch face?

Siri watch face will only show relevance information. It won’t show app unless that app has something to tell you. Weather won’t show up apart from when it wants to warn you about something. Calendar will show up when the next appointment is near, so on and so forth.
Workout will show when it want you to know something about it, like at the end of the day you need only 15 minutes walk to finish the move ring then it will appear to tell you so.

Installed the latest beta on my watch 2. Automatic work out works fine but battery life is poor. Drains about 25% more in a day with same usage.

The Siri face also learns on your habits. So for example if you always do a workout after work on Tuesdays at 5PM, around that time it starts to show you the workout app to start a workout.
 
How is it going so far, guys?
Is beta quite stable to install it on my Series 3 AW? I'm a little bit scared, cause I've read that there's no way to restore it to watchOS 4.3.2 by yourself.

I’ve had it installed on my S2 for a couple weeks with no issues. I waited until beta 8 for the exact reason you stated. I’ll remove the beta profile once the official update drops to get out of the beta.

Is this how you do it?
And how is the battery life?
Click to expand...

Yep - If you remove the profile once the official update comes, you’ll be back on the stable release schedule.

My battery seems fine. I usually put it on the charger with 30-50% at the end of the day (wear from 7am-9pm), so I don’t pay too much attention to it.

It’s great. Honestly don’t worry. The first five betas, terrible. The last couple have been solid.
