answering conflict between watch and phone When I receive a call and attempt to answer it on my phone, occasionally the call cannot be answered on my phone. I am assuming it is conflict with my watch, but I don't really know. It is an up-to-date iPhone X and a two year old SE Watch. Watch OS up-to-date also. Is there something I can do other than call back? Thank you. Fred

Have you tried to restart the watch?
