Nike Run Club App will not display on Apple Watch Series 3


Nike Run Club “Show App on Apple Watch” switch will not work.

I’ve unpaired and repaired, rebooted everything, uninstalled and reinstalled. The app works fine and used to work on my Apple Watch until about a week ago.

I'm using Apple Watch Series 3 (watchOS 8.8.1) and iPhone XR (iOS 17.1.1).

Many thanks for any solutions.

Apple Watch Series 3, watchOS 8

You are exactly correct.

NRC is only no longer support OS older than OS9. Apple Watch3 doesn't or can't update to OS9, so we are out of luck.

I purchased Apple Watch Nike purposely in hoping that NRC will be support the rest of it lifespan. It is disappoint to see a large business such Nike not supporting their legacy apps. I am no longer buy Nike product and switching to Adidas instead and using ASICS running apps instead.

Hi,

I have been communicating with Apples Support, who have been through everything with me. It's now been established that the NRC app needs to run on a later version of the Apple Watch 3 most recent update. The latest AppleWatch 3 update is 8.8.1, but the NRC runs on a more advanced version, 9 something.

Therefore the Apple Watch 3 may not ever be compatible with NRC again; unless, of course, Nike remedy this.

Hope this makes sense?

Nike no longer support Apple Watch3.
