Hi, I am currently trying to install and run a watchOS App I developed in Xcode on an Apple watch series 9. I would like to add the Apple watch as a registered device to a developer account. I need to provide the device name and the device ID or UDID to register the Apple watch. I am not sure how I can get the UDID for the Apple watch. I would appreciate your help with information on how I can get the UDID for the Apple watch and if the watch needs to be registered with a developer account for installing and running a watchOS app from Xcode on the Apple watch. Thank you.

Hi, I am trying to pair an Apple watch series 9 with Xcode version 15.4. I followed the following steps and the Apple watch does not appear as an available device in the list of run destinations in the drop down menu at the top of the Xcode window.
I switch developer mode on for the iPhone 15.
I was able to pair my Apple watch series 9 with the iPhone 15 following instructions on the iPhone.
I turn on the 'Associated Domains Development' and 'WidgetKit Developer Mode' modes in the Settings -> Developer menu of the Apple watch.
I connect the iPhone with the Macbook running Xcode using a cable and pair the two devices.
The iPhone appears as an available iOS device.
However, when I change the target to a watchOS app, the Apple watch does not appear as an available device.
I am able to install and run an App developed in Xcode on the iPhone.
Can step by step instructions for installing and running a watchOS App on an Apple watch series 9 be shared. Thank you.
