Problems installing watchOs 7 on series 4?

I've installed it on my series 4 without issue, loaded the profile to the iPhone (running iOS14) rebooted the watch, update found (took around 1 hour to download and install)

Heisan, Morten, it worked for me on both models, Watch 4 and 5. I deleted the ”old“ beta 13 profiles first on the respective iPhones. The Watch only displays the profile which is actually installed on iPhone.

If your Watch is code protected (because of Apple Pay), make sure that you are wearing it and that is unlocked when installing the profile on iPhone.

I already hade the Watch in charging position and it complained about a locked device. Once you have downloaded and installed the profile, you can put it (back) onto the charger. Bluetooth activated on iPhone? (Sorry, but sometimes there are very low-tech reasons… ;-)

Ha det bra ;-)

Hei, Morten, me again,

A copy from my other post, please consider running watchOS 7.0 Beta IN Xcode 12 Beta ON macOS 11.0 Big Sur Beta…


watchOS 7.0 Beta on-device

Please be aware that Apple do not state clearly enough that you would actually need to install the macOS Big Sur Beta AND Xcode 12 Beta, if you are after on-device development for Apple Watch and watchOS 7.0 Beta. As a matter of fact, this is a MUST.

Compiling and building watchOS 7.0 Beta on your Watch is working then as it should ;-)

No more error messages and complaining about non-installed Watch symbols. By the way, this was also the reason for failing watchOS 6.2.8 Beta builds running still macOS Catalina several days ago (simply, because macOS Big Sur Beta was not out yet and running Xcode 12 Beta alone was not good enough for watchOS 6.2.8 Beta on-device…)


Ha det bra ;-)
