Apple Watch Series 4 doesn't install enterprise app?

Hello,


My question is that Apple Watch Series 4 does not install enterprise app?


Last month our company bought a Apple Watch Series 4 (watchOS 5.0), however we noticed that Apple Watch Series 4 doesn't install our enterprise app.


And then after update watchOS 5.1.1, it shows error message that “*** Needs to Be Updated. To use this app with your Apple Watch, the developer of this app will need to update it.”. ※translated from Japanese

Also it shows console messeage like "An unknown error occurred".


The result of our inspection is the following.


Apple Watch Series 4 40mm (watchOS 5.0 / watchOS 5.1.1)

  • Developement app: can install
  • Enterprise app: can not install
  • App Store app: can install


Apple Watch Series 3 38mm (watchOS 5.0)

  • Developement app: can install
  • Enterprise app: can install
  • App Store app: can install


So we seem that Apple Watch Series 4 has a problem of installing enterprise app.

Or do we miss some important points?


Thanks a lot for your time and you help.

My company is experiencing this same exact behavior with series 4 running 5.1.1.


At first our app was built with the deployment target set to WatchOS 3.0. We received the "developer needs to update app" error.


We then updated our deployment target to WatchOS 4.2. We no longer receive the error, but when "INSTALL" is tapped, the progress indicator spins indefinitely.

Should probably both file a bug report (if not yet done).

Bug report filed.

Thx. I filed a bug report too.

Hi, did you get a response from Apple (Bug Reporting)?

I haven't got it so far.

So far I haven't got any response from Apple.

However after Xcode10.2 build, I can install enterprise watch app to S4 (watchOS5.1.1).

So it seems the problem has gone.
