It can read the model is s5 but can't read the version of watchOS and the capability of storage. Anyone knows how to fix this?

Our watchOS app uses CMFallDetectionManager (with the proper entitlement) to help alert our users and their caregivers when a fall occurs. We have had a simple implementation in our app for a couple of years now and it seems to work fine. Recently, we received a report of delayed fall alerts and have traced back the root cause to a failure from the system to call func fallDetectionManager(_ fallDetectionManager: CMFallDetectionManager, didDetect event: CMFallDetectionEvent, completionHandler handler: @escaping () -> Void) promptly when a fall occurs. Our implementation of this method begins with the following logging statement: "Fall detected at \(event.date) with status \(event.resolution.rawValue) at \(Date())" When we check our logs, we see a number of events that occur as expected, for example: Fall detected at DATE_AND_HOURS:42:09 +0000 with status 1 at DATE_AND_HOURS:42:51 +0000 However, many events show a period of several minutes from fall detection to a report: Fall detected at DATE_AND_HOURS:28:09 +0000 with status 0 at DATE_AND_HOURS:32:42 +0000 or Fall detected at DATE_AND_HOURS:44:26 +0000 with status 1 at DATE_AND_HOURS:48:14 +0000 And in the instance from our customer, we had a fall detected that evidently wasn't reported for 5 hours and 4 minutes (I'm not sharing exact timestamps publicly to maintain user privacy). We are aware of the documentation regarding the delegate and have programmed it appropriately not to receive duplicate events: Additionally, each time the user launches your app, the system checks to see if a fall event has occurred during the recent past. If one has occurred, it calls this method. Note that your app may receive the same event multiple times, for example, if the app crashes and relaunches. Always check the event’s date property to determine whether your app has already received the event. The system guarantees that different fall events have different date values. Moreover, our logger persists logs when there is no network access, and the delegate callback also requests a network post to our servers that, again, is preserved in a background queue until connectivity is restored if it's not available. Our app's other updates (watchOS complication, etc.) from this user's Watch also show that our app was running in the background and communicating with our servers during that time. We have very high confidence that the watch and our app did not miss any more timely calls to that delegate method. While this one five-hour delay was an exceptionally bad occurrence, we also find the other delays of several minutes to be concerning, considering the time-sensitive nature of falls. Does Apple or do any developers have any insights about what's going on and what expectations we should be setting for our users?

Hello, I’m currently developing a fitness app for watchOS that lets a user to manually set a desired heart rate target zone (enter numbers representing the lower and upper boundaries) and start a workout (right now it’s only “Other” type). After that my app monitors user’s heart rate and alerts them when they’re out of zone. When user ends the workout, the info about this workout appears on “Fitness” iOS app, and user can see the workout data like Workout Time, Active and Total Calories, Avg. Heart Rate. Also user can see Heart Rate chart with info how their heart rate was changing during a workout (see the Figure 1). Now to the question. When user clicks “Show More” button above the Heart Rate chart, they can see the same Heart Rate chart and another one, with Post-Workout Heart Rate (see the Figure 2). But there is no “Estimated time in each heart rate zone” as one can see in the workout’s details that were recorded from Apple’s workout (watchOS “Workout” app, for a workout of “Other” type as well). Please see the Figure 3. The question is: is it possible to add “Estimated time in each heart rate zone” to workout recorded via my third-party app so it would look like on the Figure 3 in "Fitness" iOS app, and if it's possible, what steps should I undertake to implement this ? Thanks in advance! I posted the screenshots in the replies to the post, because otherwise I was not able to submit a post ("sensitive language" warning, I suspect it's because of the ids in the attached screenshot's urls)

I'm currently working with complication using widgetkit for watchOS. When I select complication from Watch app in iPhone, The complication does not show content. In complication gallery, untitled complication is selecting. But when I select complication from watch, it's OK. This bug occurs in both real device and simulator. But it happen in some pair. Example: watch ultra (os 10.4) pair with iPhone 14 pro (os 17.0): NG watch ultra (os 10.4) pair with iPhone 14 pro (os 16.1): NG watch ultra (os 10.0) pair with iPhone 14 pro (os 17.0): OK I tried create simple project to check this bug. But this bug still occurs This is sample project: Github

Privacy and Security Settings on Apple Watch requires a screen time passcode, but when I enter the correct passcode, it says its wrong. I need to get into these settings to access developer mode on my watch. If you know how to fix this, please help.

I updated Watch OS 10.5 (21T5571a) on May 1. However, the battery is draining quickly. My watch is an Ultra, and I fully charged it at 1 am. When I woke up at 8 am, the battery was at 79%. By 2:30 pm, the battery was only at 20%. I have not engaged in any activities today.

Hello, everyone, I have a problem I'm stuck with and have been trying to solve without success for the past 2 weeks. I am developing a SwiftUI application for Apple Watch which for now I am only running on the simulator. This application has to play sounds but unfortunately so far without success for Apple Watch simulator. When I tap the button on the application running on the Series 9 (45mm) simulator with watchOS 10.2. I cannot hear any sounds on my MacBook Pro. This happens for all Apple Watch simulators I have in my MacBook. The same exact code works on the iPhone 15 simulator with iOS 17.2 and I hear the file 1.mp3 from MacBook Pro speakers and also from bluetooth hearphones, if I connect them. The code is this import SwiftUI import AVFoundation struct ContentView: View { @State var audioPlayer:AVPlayer? @State var isPlaying : Bool = false var body: some View { VStack { Image(systemName: "globe") .imageScale(.large) .foregroundStyle(.tint) Text("Hello, world!") Button("Play"){ if let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "1", ofType: "mp3") { let fileUrl = URL(fileURLWithPath: path) do{ try AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().setCategory(AVAudioSession.Category.playback) try AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().setActive(true) audioPlayer = AVPlayer(url: fileUrl) guard let audioPlayer = audioPlayer else { return } audioPlayer.play() } catch { } } } } .padding() } } Thanks for your support!

Is there a bug in this beta version that causes complications show placeholders only. This problem does not exist for watchOS 1.4

I've reached a point where I can no longer make any progress diagnosing the issues that have popped up with Apple Watch development support. To hopefully help draw attention and focus to the severity of this problem, I'm gathering all related threads into this single thread. Summary of problems There are several, possibly related, issues at play: Xcode is not discovering Apple Watches. This means it's not possible to deploy apps to Apple Watches that aren't already provisioned with Xcode. I've confirmed this behavior with a watch running watchOS 10.0. The logging profile for watchOS has expired. It's no longer possible to pull logs via Console from Apple Watches. AppIntent-based complications on watchOS 10.5 no longer load, staying stuck in a "placeholder" state. This can be reproduced with the Backyard Birds demo app. It's no longer possible to debug widget extensions on Apple Watch hardware. Feedback submitted FB13758427: No longer able to connect to Apple Watch from Xcode I was attempting to test another regression related to AppIntents no longer working on watchOS 10.5. To confirm the behavior had regressed since earlier versions of watchOS, I set up one of my older Apple Watches that is still running watchOS 10.0. After wiping the watch and repairing it with one of my test devices (iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 17.4.1), I’m unable to get the Apple Watch to appear in Xcode’s Devices & Simulators manager. The phone is connected via USB cable, and the phone appears as a Connected phone, but the watch does not appear. My Apple Watch Ultra that I use as my daily driver does appear as a remote device (the globe icon is next to it), but the Apple Watch 10.0 does not appear. Details about the older watch: Version: 10.0 21R5341c Model: A2478 Not being able to test on other Apple Watches is severely limiting my ability to isolate and confirm the regression in AppIntent support that can be reproduced in the Backyard Birds demo app. Note that the 10.0 watch does actually appear in the Console app, but with a warning sign next to it. The 10.0 watch also appears twice. Clicking the warning sign does not reveal any information about why the warning is appearing, but after ~5 seconds I do get the following error in Console.app: “The user has not responded to the pairing request on 'Headless’ Respond to the Trust prompt on the device.” There is no trust prompt on the device. FB13756074: WatchOS logging profile is no longer valid https://developer.apple.com/bug-reporting/profiles-and-logs/?platform=watchos is no longer valid. See attached error that occurs when attempting to install the profile onto my Apple Watch Ultra. It seems that without this I’m unable to get any logs off of my Apple Watch, which is making testing/development quite difficult. FB13758450: AppIntent-based widgets no longer render on watchOS 10.5 AppIntent-based complications no longer get beyond a placeholder state on watchOS. This can be reproduced with the Backyard Birds demo app, which uses AppIntent-based widget configurations for the watchOS complications. AppIntent-based complications did appear to work in previous versions of watchOS 10, but I’m unable to confirm this with a 10.0 Watch I have due to FB13758427. To reproduce deploy the attached unmodified Backyard Birds app to a watch running watchOS 10.5. add a Backyard Birds complication to a watch face. Expected behavior: the widget shows live data Actual behavior: the complication never leaves a placeholder state. See the attached screenshot for the state the widget is stuck in. FB13758490: PacketLogger no longer logs packets PacketLogger used to log BTLE packets as they were received and transmitted on a macOS machine. Since updating to 14.5 Beta (23F5064f) however, PacketLogger no longer logs packets on macOS at all. Upon starting a new session, the interface remains empty. PacketLogger is still able to log packets from a connected iOS device. Related threads Apple Watch cannot reconnect WatchOS Sysdiagnose Profile is no longer XCode 15 can't run on iOS 17 devices. Previous preparation error: An error occurred while communicating with a remote process.. The connection was invalidated.

Is there a way to access the Core NFC Framework from within a watchOS app?

I noticied that my workout session is sometimes being killed by apple when the app is in the background and it seems that the func workoutSession(_ workoutSession: HKWorkoutSession, didChangeTo toState: HKWorkoutSessionState, from fromState: HKWorkoutSessionState, date: Date) { is only being called when the app comes back into the foreground. I wonder if there is a way for us to get notified when the workout is about to die or has already been killed. Thanks

Hi, it seems like the wachOS sysdiagnose debug profile is no longer valid and needs to be updated. Any idea to whom we should reach out to get this fixed? I am talking about the profile linked here: https://developer.apple.com/bug-reporting/profiles-and-logs/?platform=watchos Kind regards Alex

手表系统： 10.2 表现：从手机Watch App上看，表盘组件部分都显示关闭；从手表上看，表盘组件不展示

Hi, I have a watchOS app that records audio for an extended period of time and because the mic is active, continues to record in background mode when the watch face is off. However, when a call comes in or Siri is activated, recording stops because of an audio interruption. Here is my code for setting up the session: private func setupAudioSession() { let audioSession = AVAudioSession.sharedInstance() do { try audioSession.setCategory(.playAndRecord, mode: .default, options: [.overrideMutedMicrophoneInterruption]) try audioSession.setActive(true, options: .notifyOthersOnDeactivation) } catch { print("Audio Session error: \(error)") } } Before this I register an interruption handler that holds a reference to my AudioEngine (which I start and stop each time recording is activated by the user): _audioInterruptionHandler = AudioInterruptionHandler(audioEngine: _audioEngine) And here is how this class implements recovery: fileprivate class AudioInterruptionHandler { private let _audioEngine: AVAudioEngine public init(audioEngine: AVAudioEngine) { _audioEngine = audioEngine // Listen to interrupt notifications NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(handleAudioInterruption(notification:)), name: AVAudioSession.interruptionNotification, object: nil) } @objc private func handleAudioInterruption(notification: Notification) { guard let userInfo = notification.userInfo, let interruptionTypeRawValue = userInfo[AVAudioSessionInterruptionTypeKey] as? UInt, let interruptionType = AVAudioSession.InterruptionType(rawValue: interruptionTypeRawValue) else { return } switch interruptionType { case .began: print("[AudioInterruptionHandler] Interruption began") case .ended: print("[AudioInterruptionHandler] Interruption ended") print("Interruption ended") do { try AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().setActive(true) } catch { print("[AudioInterruptionHandler] Error resuming audio session: \(error.localizedDescription)") } default: print("[AudioInterruptionHandler] Unknown interruption: \(interruptionType.rawValue)") } } } Unfortunately, it fails with: Error resuming audio session: Session activation failed Is this even possible to do on watchOS? This code worked for me on iOS. Thank you, -- B.

I am a watchOS 10.0 device, try to open the developer mode, according to the official website to enter the Settings > Privacy > Developer Mode. But I don't see the developer mode option, how do I turn on the developer mode for watchOS 10.0 device?

I'm building complications using WidgetKit and SwiftUI. The complications work, but the previews don't appear right away when applying the .watchface. How can I ensure the complication previews show up immediately when a user adds the watch face? Any guidance is appreciated.

Good morning, I come to you for a question: When I install my application on my iPhone for the first time, and I install the watch application from the native "Watch" application, the Watch Connectivity function does not work, I have to do the installation from Xcode to the watch for this function to work. Is this normal? if yes, the problem will not arise during a publication? I have the same problem when using watch and iPhone simulators, WatchConnectivity does not work. I am this error code in Xcode: -[WCSession handleIncomingUserInfoWithPairingID:]_block_invoke delegate (null) does not implement session:didReceiveUserInfo:, discarding incoming content Here is the code for the iPhone and the watch: In my iPhone app: import WatchConnectivity let userDefaultsDataVenantWatch = UserDefaults.standard class PhoneDataModel : NSObject, WCSessionDelegate, ObservableObject { static let shared = PhoneDataModel() let session = WCSession.default @Published var TableauSynchroIphoneVersWatch : [String:String] = ["0":"0"] @Published var dataWatchVersIphone: [String:String] = ["":""] override init() { super.init() if WCSession.isSupported() { session.delegate = self session.activate() } else { print("ERROR: Watch session not supported") } } func session(_ session: WCSession, activationDidCompleteWith activationState: WCSessionActivationState, error: Error?) { if let error = error { print("session activation failed with error: \(error.localizedDescription)") return } } func sessionDidBecomeInactive(_ session: WCSession) { session.activate() } func sessionDidDeactivate(_ session: WCSession) { session.activate() } func session(_ session: WCSession, didReceiveUserInfo userInfo: [String : Any]) { guard let newCount = userInfo["TableauSynchroIphoneWatch"] as? [String:String] else { print("ERROR: unknown data received from Watch TableauSynchroIphoneWatch") return } DispatchQueue.main.async { print(newCount) } } } In my Watch app: import WatchConnectivity let userDefaultsDataVenantIphone = UserDefaults.standard var TableauVenantIphone:[String:String] = ["":""] class WatchDataModel : NSObject, WCSessionDelegate, ObservableObject { static let shared = WatchDataModel() let session = WCSession.default @Published var TableauSynchroIphoneWatch : [String:String] = ["0":"0"] override init() { super.init() if WCSession.isSupported() { session.delegate = self session.activate() } else { print("ERROR: Watch session not supported") } } func session(_ session: WCSession, activationDidCompleteWith activationState: WCSessionActivationState, error: Error?) { if let error = error { print("session activation failed with error: \(error.localizedDescription)") return } } func session(_ session: WCSession, didReceiveUserInfo userInfo: [String : Any]) { guard let newCount = userInfo["TableauSynchroIphoneVersWatch"] as? [String:String] else { print("ERROR: unknown data received from Watch TableauSynchroIphoneWatch") return } DispatchQueue.main.async { print(newCount) } } } Thank for your answers !

I understand that the Nearby Interaction framework is available on watchOS 8+, and I want to make a watch app that displays distance estimation between multiple watches (not iPhones) using UWB through Nearby Interactions. I see in the documentation that an iPhone can discover multiple device "discovery tokens" and create NISessions with them using the Multipeer Connectivity framework, but it looks like the Multipeer Connectivity framework is not available on watchOS? So, how might I make an independent watch app that can discover multiple nearby watches and setup NISessions with them? Thanks!

It's not just me that the watch doesn't show up in Xcode 15.3, Watch 10.4, iOS 17.4.1, right? In Xcode, the Mac and iPhone are connected and displayed, but only the watch is not working. And when I run the complication app, oddly enough, it prompts to install the app on the iPhone device's watch app? It's really strange, isn't it? But the installation doesn't actually happen. It seems like a funny thing with Apple. Does anyone know when this will be fixed?

Could you please provide clarification on whether WatchOS currently supports the real-time or on-demand measurement of skin temperature and ambient temperature? If so, Could you also guide us on the relevant APIs or resources available for incorporating these features into out applications?
