watchOS 6 > What features are you most excited about?

[dereknas]

For subsequent betas of WatchOS 6, can we update from the watch itself by downloading the update directly or we still need to go through the phone?

Maybe. No-one knows yet, as Apple hasn't said.

Please wait. I did it and more than anything I miss the "messages" on watch faces, especially the new watch faces.

Are you missing the messages complication too?

I had the issue where it wasn't there, but restarting and then re-selecting it, it was back.

Still have to go through the iPhone, it might change on the final version.

But I tried updating directly to from the Watch itself, but I had to finish the setup via the iPhone since it gave me a prompt to do so. And I had to put the Apple Watch on the charger.

Can’t get the Streaks Workout app to install on WatchOS6 sadly.

I have a few apps that won’t install. Hopefully beta 3 fixes this.

I’m having a problem where Shazam and weather live app are showing as offline on my watch. Tried restarting. Tried uninstalling and then reinstalling but nothing is working

I’ve had issues too. Hopefully there is beta 3 tomorrow.

I used Gymaholic, on watchOS 6 beta 1, for my workout yesterday. Overall, it worked well. I noticed one minor glitch.

Thanks for the info. Haven’t been on the site for a while, so just saw it.

Tested and third party apps work properly in beta 3.

Put your Apple Watch on the charger.. and unlock it. Then try to resume download.

Or close your Apple Watch. But make sure your Apple Watch is unlock while you try to update it via the Apple Watch app..

Try a hard reset. Hold two buttons till you see the Apple logo and try installing update again.

Yeah, I had that issue. I even tried to install it via the Apple Watch itself. But unlocking the Apple Watch helped my cause...

I don’t know why it wasn’t reading that I was on WiFi, but it’s beta... so I can’t really fault it being buggy.

 

[Ludatyk]

I had to type my iTunes password from the Apple Watch itself. It gives me the option to insert text via iOS device.

 

[jschu22]

How’s the batt....

JK. Anything glaringly wrong (or right) so far?

Nothing

Are you getting the install update via the Apple Watch itself? And when you install it from there.. does it give you the same message?
