I cannot update the Apple Watch version. It keeps saying that a new update is available but it ways keeps on the rotating gearwheel spinner. The problem is not data connection problem as I am able to access anything else (social media, browser etc...) Will try to re-install the app on the iPhone. Would appreciate any help.

Greetings skybird123,
We understand that you are having some difficulty updating your Appel Watch, and we'd like to help. You've mentioned you don't have any connections issues, but we do recommend trying another Wi-Fi connection. Certain things like a VPN could prevent software updates.

In the end un-pairing from iPhone, resetting the Apple Watch (restoring back-up from iPhone so I didn't lose any data) and paring did the trick. thanks!
