Apple Watch doesn't vibrate for notifications version: 11.1 help please

I have FB12696743 open since July 21, 2023 and this happened again today. I get home at approx 10 mins after the hour, walk appox 50 ft across my yard, up 5 steps into my house, let the dog out and pace on my deck watching the dog, go back in the house walk around the kitchen while preparing dinner. A total of about 200 ft. I sit down about 35 past the hour and start to eat and at 10 mins to the next our and I get the reminder to stand. On the other side I wake up at 5 mins to hour. Walk 8 steps to the bathroom and successfully achieve the stand for that hour. WHY!?!?!? 😁🤣

Dear all, i am a music conductor and developer, and to fulfill my joy with music i recently developed a WatchFace and some apps for a non-apple watch called "PineTime". My whole development is done in c++ and is available at https://github.com/luto65/PineConductor/ Since I am aswell an apple developer, and most of my friends have apple watches, i am now porting those c++ apps to the apple watch. I just finished the very first one, that is actually a watch Face I now ported it to appleWatch and it looks pretty similar too (here a screenshot from the simulator) I would like to now remove the annoying digital hour on the top right corner, and then sell it as new custom face, together with my other swift-ports of my original c++ applications. Looking forward any feedback.

Even after resetting my watch 3x and doing a hard reset I keep getting the notification “Your iPhone has a policy that requires a new Apple Watch password” I have tried and tried to re-set it only to keep getting the same notification

Hi, We have a bank app which can activate tokenized payment cards (in Requires Activation status) on Apple devices. In my case some customers tried to activate their card token on their Apple Watch. Our card system gathered all the required card data with the PNO and sent them to our app. Our app called the PKPassLibrary.activate() method, but got back the Swedish localizedDescription "Oväntat fel" which means "Unexpected error" in English. We checked our card system logs and contacted our PNO, both found no issue and no explanation to the unexpected error. How can we identify the issue here? Can we somehow find a more detailed error log from Apple Server? Best regards, Adrian Lui

The peripheral is initiating a passkey entry mechanism, IOS device is getting a pop up to enter the passkey but the WatchOS device is not displaying any pop-up. Is there anything to be enabled from the watch side?

Can someone confirm this is supposed to be happening after all these years. I have noticed that now when I delete the messages from my Apple Watch (IOS11) they are now deleting from my phone (IOS18). I was glad I noticed and was able to recover them but I almost lost some impoRyan messages. I did do a test and confirm this is true. But the question is, is this supposed to be happening and if so is there a way to disable only this sync? I like to try and keep the messages icon on the watch clean since when I read the messag on my phone it does sync read on the watch and leaves the unread number on the icon.

There's no option to help me turn it on in my iPhone 16 Pro Max MYW43LL/A (iOS 18.1 developer beta) and Apple Watch Series 10 MWX13LW/A (watchOS 11 Developer Beta).

Since installing WatchOS 11 on my ultra 2, the battery life has decreased significantly. This morning alone (in the space of 4 hours) It has dropped 23%. This isn’t normal for my watch to drop that much in such a short period of time. I’m wondering if there is a setting somewhere that has turned itself on with the update and causing the watch to use the sensors more, shot in the dark. I have also noticed the watch is recording more exercise minutes (when not in a workout) than it did previously before the OS 11 update.

It would be a great innovation to incorporate a Card Reader into both iPhones and Apple Watches. The user could open the card reader app on his watch or phone, enter the amount to be paid into his nominated bank account (eg £15) ready for the purchaser/customer to tap his card to make the contactless payment. It would simplify my everyday life enormously because I hardly ever carry cash these days.

I tried building some app logic around NetworkMonitor.isConnected in my watch app (I want to trigger an update when the user opens the app and isConnected == true, otherwise observe NetworkMonitor.isConnected until it changes to true), and I found out that on a real device, NetworkMonitor.isConnected is always false. This does not seem to be documented anywhere. Am I right in assuming NetworkMonitor is not to be trusted on the watch? watchOS version is 18. I found an old post where eskimo argues that NWPathMonitor is not useful on the watch (which is also not documented), is it the same for NetworkMonitor? https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/127080

I'm using Healthkit with the following H/W specs: Apple Watch, series 8, OS: 10.6.1 (21U580) iPhone 11 Pro, OS: 17.6.1 Mac Studio M1 Xcode ver: 16.0 (16A242d) I am trying to get Apple Watch to report heart rate, HRV, respiratory rate, and body temperature using Healthkit's HKLiveWorkoutBuilder implementing HKLiveWorkoutBuilderDelegate's workoutBuilder method. However, the only reported value that is found from the workoutBuilder method's collectedTypes (a Set of HKSampleType objects) is HKQuantityTypeIdentifierHeartRate. Nothing for HRV, respiratory rate, or body temperature. All entitlements are set up, the plist filled in, and capabilities in place. Not sure why only the heart rate is reported from the watch but nothing else. I've scoured StackOverflow, Apple developer forums, even ChatGPT but none of the solutions work. Any help most appreciate! The model code is: import Foundation import HealthKit class WatchModel: NSObject, HKLiveWorkoutBuilderDelegate, HKWorkoutSessionDelegate { private let healthStore = HKHealthStore() private var workoutSession: HKWorkoutSession! private var workoutBuilder: HKLiveWorkoutBuilder! override init() { super.init() requestAuthorization() startWorkoutSession() } private func requestAuthorization() { let heartRateType = HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .heartRate)! let respiratoryRateType = HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .respiratoryRate)! let HRVRateType = HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .heartRateVariabilitySDNN)! let temperatureRateType = HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .bodyTemperature)! let healthDataTypes: Set = [heartRateType, respiratoryRateType, HRVRateType, temperatureRateType] healthStore.requestAuthorization(toShare: healthDataTypes, read: healthDataTypes) { (success, error) in if !success { print("Authorization failed") } } } func workoutSession(_ workoutSession: HKWorkoutSession, didChangeTo toState: HKWorkoutSessionState, from fromState: HKWorkoutSessionState, date: Date) { } func workoutSession(_ workoutSession: HKWorkoutSession, didFailWithError error: any Error) { } func workoutBuilderDidCollectEvent(_ workoutBuilder: HKLiveWorkoutBuilder) { } func startWorkoutSession() { let configuration = HKWorkoutConfiguration() configuration.activityType = .other configuration.locationType = .indoor do { workoutSession = try HKWorkoutSession(healthStore: healthStore, configuration: configuration) workoutBuilder = workoutSession.associatedWorkoutBuilder() workoutBuilder.delegate = self workoutBuilder.dataSource = HKLiveWorkoutDataSource(healthStore: healthStore, workoutConfiguration: configuration) let dataSource = HKLiveWorkoutDataSource(healthStore: healthStore, workoutConfiguration: configuration) let respiratoryRate = HKQuantityType(.respiratoryRate) dataSource.enableCollection(for: respiratoryRate, predicate: nil) let bodyTemp = HKQuantityType(.bodyTemperature) dataSource.enableCollection(for: bodyTemp, predicate: nil) let hrv = HKQuantityType(.heartRateVariabilitySDNN) dataSource.enableCollection(for: hrv, predicate: nil) workoutSession.delegate = self workoutSession.startActivity(with: Date()) workoutBuilder.beginCollection(withStart: Date(), completion: { (success, error) in if let error = error { print("Error starting collection: \(error.localizedDescription)") } }) } catch { print("Failed to start workout session: \(error.localizedDescription)") } } func workoutBuilder(_ workoutBuilder: HKLiveWorkoutBuilder, didCollectDataOf collectedTypes: Set<HKSampleType>) { print("collected types: \(collectedTypes)") for type in collectedTypes { if let quantityType = type as? HKQuantityType { if quantityType == HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .heartRate) { if let heartRateQuantity = workoutBuilder.statistics(for: quantityType)?.mostRecentQuantity() { let heartRateUnit = HKUnit(from: "count/min") let heartRateValue = heartRateQuantity.doubleValue(for: heartRateUnit) print("heart rate: \(heartRateValue)") } } if quantityType == HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .heartRateVariabilitySDNN) { if let hrvQuantity = workoutBuilder.statistics(for: quantityType)?.mostRecentQuantity() { let hrvUnit = HKUnit.secondUnit(with: .milli) let hrvValue = hrvQuantity.doubleValue(for: hrvUnit) print("HRV: \(hrvValue)") } } if quantityType == HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .bodyTemperature) { if let bodyTempQuantity = workoutBuilder.statistics(for: quantityType)?.mostRecentQuantity() { let tempUnit = HKUnit.degreeCelsius() let tempValue = bodyTempQuantity.doubleValue(for: tempUnit) print("body temp: \(tempValue)") } } if quantityType == HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .respiratoryRate) { if let respRateQuantity = workoutBuilder.statistics(for: quantityType)?.mostRecentQuantity() { let respRateUnit = HKUnit(from: "count/min") let respRateValue = respRateQuantity.doubleValue(for: respRateUnit) print("breathing: \(respRateValue)") } } } } } }

I'm trying to use a custom SVG as a SF Symbol for a .accessoryInline complication on Apple Watch but it only appear on WatchOS 11. I even tried a fresh project and exported one of the symbols from SF Symbols app to eliminate error with custom symbol creation. On WatchOS 11 it shows correctly and colored, on WatchOS 10.5, no symbol at all. Am I missing some setting or something? Tried different Render As options for the symbol with no luck. For corner complication, it shows it fine (Series 10 is WatchOS 11 here) What is more weird in kinda shows that it's loading in comlication preview: Overall can't use any image for inline complication unless I do it like this: Image(uiImage: UIImage(named: "ImageName") ?? UIImage()) .resizable() Which can't be colored also

Hi Team, We tried to release a new build of our app to App Store yesterday from the Mac machine running on macOS Sonoma 14.6.1(23G93) and with Xcode 15.3 But we got a rejection which is mentioned as below Program License Agreement 2.3 - Confidential Nature of Pre-Release Apple Software and Services Your app or its metadata contains references to a pre-release version of Apple software, products, or hardware. Apps with compatibility references to a pre-release candidate version of an Apple operating system or pre-released Apple products or hardware are not in compliance with the Apple Developer Program License Agreement. But we are not using anything related to new release of IOS or watchOS in our app So could you please let us know what is the exact issue, so that we rectify the same and submit another build Thank you

Info watchOS: 11.0 (22R5348a) *Though has been present since watchOS 10. Issue: Other apps playing music cancel out WKHaptics from firing (low volume and no vibrations) Description When another app is playing music (ex: spotify) in the background while using my app, that uses WKHaptics. The WKHaptics vibrations are non existent as long as headphones are connected. When the headphones are disconnected the vibrations return.

I am probably being stupid but I can't find a way to code for the new 42mm/46mm series 10 watches. I have downloaded the XCode RC and from what I remember from previous years with new screen sizes (Ultra, Series 7, Series 4 etc) that usually supports the new watches after they have been announced. However I can't see them in the simulator or as options in storyboards. Do I need to download something else, or do I have to wait for a new version of XCode? Adjusting my app for new screen sizes is always time consuming and the new watches will be released in 10 days so I was hoping to make a start on it now.

I have an application with watchKit, now I am removing support to iWatch app. Is it possible that iWatch app will automatically disappear? Right now, it is not.

Hello everyone, I’m currently developing an app for the Apple Watch and am working on implementing a dimming feature that activates when the device is in Theater mode. Is there any way to detect programmatically whether Theater mode is enabled or disabled? Thanks!

I bought an Apple Watch series 9, but I'm not very comfortable using the standard Apple health app, so I decided to try huawei health. The question is, is there any way to sync your Apple Watch with this app? I am also interested in how to find out the temperature on the wrist in degrees, and not how much it deviates from the norm? And now a question for Apple personally: why should I LIE that I am 18 years old (I am 16 years old) in order to measure the oxygen level in my blood? Why am I paying 36,000₽ ($403.47) for two non-working chips?! One of them is NFC, and the second is a second-generation ultra wideband chip, which are vital for me personally! Don't be like Samsung, they can't find headphones at all through their locator if the case is closed, and you tell Apple that just use ultra wideband, users from Russia just laugh at you when you mention this chip, I've been looking for my headphones for 3 days. I'm sorry if it's too aggressive at the end, it just doesn't suit me that I'm paying a lot of money for something that doesn't work. [Everything was written through a translator]

Always on not working. Watch also not switching on when wrist is raised. Tapping on the screen lights it up. Any idea if this is a bug our if I may be doing something odd. Tried all the settings available.
