Apple Watch Series 10 screenshot not uploading to Photos

My Series 10 Watch 11.6.1 is not uploading screenshots to Photos on its paired iPhone 15 18.6.2

Screenshot is enabled, which I dis and re enabled, turned watch off and on but still no upload

I have an old Series 4 Watch also paired to same iPhone which I use at work so save damaging my newer Series 10, the both sync up ok to carry over steps, exercise, iMessage to each other perfectly and this Series 4 does upload screenshots perfectly.

What the issue with my Series 10 Watch not uploading screenshots?

I have managed to get the series 10 to upload snapshots again. I off/on the enable screen shots from both iPhone and watch i turn and restarted both.

It was the restarts that resolved the issue, however thinking back not sure if it were to iPhone or Watch restart that did the trick

Have you also tried to restart the paired iPhone ?

I know that this is a known issue and apple is already looking in to it for as far as i know, but maybe the restart of the iPhone will do the trick
