I can’t do that software update for my Apple Watch SE. (from 9.3 to 9.4.) I tried every steps as instructed. It says ““Unable to check for update An error occurred while checking for a software update.” It doesn’t mention what error. what Should I do?
Dah-veed ... baby, your answer is the - NORMAL - " easy button " reply.
For the apple watch / iphone users that updated their software the past few days
when we - Follow Your NORMAL - instructions it says the watch is "unable to check for update".
We've all rebooted the watch & iphone. Tried to update from the iphone app, watch alone, NO HELP.
This is an error that came out of THE APPLE Nationwide Released Update.. it F'd the watch up.
..
We need (1) a QUICK Apple Update to fix it, a way for the iphone to forward it to the watch
or.. (2) a backway in the watch to force an update WITHOUT F'n HAVING TO RESET THE **** WATCH !!
.
Gosh, after the last watch update that screwed with the battery (making it die in 4 hours) I had
told a co-worker to NEVER accept an update for a week or so to make sure there's no bugs..
Idiot Me.. I thought it was a fix.

Are you trying to update the watch using the Watch App on your iPhone? If so, try updating on the watch.
Go to Settings>General>Software Update on the watch and initiate the update. As soon as you do, remove the watch from your arm and place it on its charging puck.

I've been trying to update my Apple Watch SE since December 2022, and have been unable. I have tried all of the recommendations, and still no success. At this point, I think my watch must be defective. Any additional tips or advice will be greatly appreciated.
PS - Most folks who come here with battery issues after a watchOS update have solved the issue with a hard restart.
Success !! I've been checking my iphone / watch app for a fix/update every few hours and it JUST NOW pulled the new update.
Woot !! Woot !!
