Opening the update section in the "Watch" app on iPhone says "Update iPhone First".
iPhone X is already at 16.6.1, and says that is the latest.
Apple Watch Series 4 seems to be at version 9.6.2, according to the "About" section in the "Watch" app.
What s going on, how could this be fixed?
Apple Watch Series 4, watchOS 9
Thank you for all the helpful replies. So Apple basically discontinued Watch updates for customers with older phones - seemingly including security updates.
Maybe European Commission will one day get to them and prohibit the practice of updates to one device being restricted to another device...
Watch OS 10 requires iOS 17 from everything I have seen. iPhone X is NOT compatible with iOS 17, lowest is the iPhone XR.
Is it that the iPhone does not support the latest version 17? Seems that the supported devices are Xs and later.
