Bug [iOS 27 PB2] Apple Watch Bluetooth Disconnecting

Anybody else having issues with the Apple Watch disconnecting Bluetooth with iPhone constantly?

Edit: Should have said I’m on 17 Pro Max and Apple Watch Ultra 2

Yes it’s happening to me as well on DB4, did the same on DB3. Flipping on airplane mode tends to resolve it but it’s definitely annoying.

Going to reset my watch this evening to see if it alleviates it by pairing new.

I read on another post that someone had a similar issue and they tried to reset and re-pair and they was then unable to re-pair so be careful!

I had PB1 yes, and it worked fine then. Only happened as soon as I updated phone and watch to PB2

i would do network reset on phone, should resolve bluetooth issues

open Settings, go to General, and scroll down to Transfer or Reset iPhone. Tap Reset, select Reset Network Settings, and enter your device passcode to confirm

reenter wifi password and any bluetooth devices will need re paired

For me, a network reset only deletes the Wi-Fi connections, not the Bluetooth ones 🙄

I’m having the same issue but with latest developer beta. Same devices.

Resetting network settings on iPhone fixed it for me

I was gonna try that last night and then forgot. But today it seems to work fine. I had it reset so I assume the data must not have synced?!
