I bought a new Apple Watch for my wife. She has a 1st gen iPhone SE (she just loves it and doesn’t want to upgrade). The watch won’t work with her phone - obviously something I should have checked into before purchasing. Is there anything I can do? Like maybe swap the watch out for an earlier model?
It’s not really about the watch model. It’s about the watchOS version. If you get a series 7 with watchOS 9, she won’t be able to use it. You need watchOS 8. Someone correct me if I’m wrong.
Looks like you’re right. For the fine print to be right, Apple Watch Series 7 would have to ship with watchOS 8. Do you think they’re still shipping like that? What a weird dilemma.
