Apple Watch series 3 will not update.

I’ve done all the steps needed to try to fix it. Nothing is helping. Anyone have solutions for this?

Hello Wes3220,


It seems like you've been trying to update your Apple Watch but have been unsuccessful, and you already checked out the article regarding "Unable to verify update".


Let's make sure your devices are compatible with all updates here:


Update your Apple Watch - Apple Support


"Check your Apple Watch compatibility

First, make sure that your Apple Watch works with the latest software. watchOS 9 is compatible with these Apple Watch models:

  • Apple Watch Series 4 and later
  • Apple Watch SE (1st generation) and later
  • Apple Watch Ultra

Updating to watchOS 9 also requires one of these iPhone models:

  • iPhone 8 or later with iOS 16
  • iPhone SE (2nd generation) or later with iOS 16

If your Apple Watch isn't compatible with the latest version of watchOS, Software Update will show you the newest version that your watch can use."


If you need additional assistance, contact Apple Support.


Regards.
