Unable to connect Apple watch to iPhone running iOS 13

Hi All,

I updated my iPhone X to iOS13 Public beta version. I also updated my Apple watch series 3 to Watch OS 6.

It was all working fine a month ago, before the watch denied to connect to my Iphone. So I tried resetting my apple watch and now it is reset. But however in my iPhone, the watch was still listed in ‘Watch’ app of the device. So I unpaired which was successfully unpaired then.

However when I try to Pair it again, it say ‘Activating Apple Watch. This may take a few minutes’. Simultaneously, After 3-4 minutes, it shows ‘Unpairing Apple Watch message’ in iPhone.

The it goes back to Start Pairing screen.

Is anyone facing this issue? If so can you please suggest a solution for this?

Regards,

Avi.K

Chosen Solution

what I believe to be the only solution. I had to put the phone into DFU mode, flash the beta 5 onto the phone and then I could connect the Iphone to the watch. From there I could install WatchOS beta 2 then install the latest beta onto the phone. It was crappy, but it worked.
