iPhone Simulator – Apple Watch Is Syncing (Xcode 11 Beta 7)

Currently runnning XCode 11 Beta 7, and trying to test out iCloud based functionality with an Apple Watch paired to an iPhone.


However, when I open the watch settings app on the paired phone, it immediately displayed the screen saying that the "Apple Watch Is Syncing" and to come back later. But this never finishes.


I have tried deleting simulators and re-pairing the Apple Watch but nothing seems to change this behaviour - even though the Watch is working and apparently paired, I cannot access the settings app.


Is this expected behaviour? Have I done something wrong?

Same problem with Xcode 11.0 GM (11A419c). Pairing does not work.

Same problem with Xcode 11.0 GM Seed 2 (11A420a). Pairing does not work.

Pairing works now with Xcode 11.1.

Same problem here. Xcode 12.5

Getting pretty annoyed with how poorly the tools work for Apple Watch apps. Debugging is also horrible.
