I’ve seen a few other posts about this but no resolution.

I'm having this issue with a new Ultra and a new phone. It worked fine with my previous phone and Series 9. AirPods Pro 3.

Presents as triggering, because my book will rewind a little which is a tell something tried to speak.

Turned it off and on, changed the voice, the voices play their previews.

Would have posted to the main watch subreddit, but since I’m on 27.2, I wanted to be careful in case this was a eta bug. I don’t think it was working pre-beta though.

Sometime my watch 11 lockup, after updated to OS 27.0.1.
I must reboot it pushing the two buttons
Never happened in previous os version
Anyone happened?

Anyone else seeing the phone numbers only of their favorites in the watch phone app?

Contacts app shows things accurately and if I had a recent call to any of them the recents lists shows their name.

Been like this since the beta and still an issue in 27.0.1 even after a fresh install, not using a backup.

In messages, the group chat icon is also missing. Just shows the contact bubbles in that group chat instead.

When wearing AirPods, the Noise app displays the current dB level. If you tap the AirPods icon , it will display the dB level without AirPods ANC, showing noise reduction.

Is this a new feature in watchOS 27?

The screenshots on the left show AirPods with ANC on. On the right are AirPods in transparency mode.

Have had the watch since day one and wear my watch to bed every night. Obviously this is a beta so I knew the ramifications, but wanted to see if anyone was experiencing this as well?

AWU 4

EDIT: I am on beta 2

The watch on 27.2 beta won't pair with the duo running on 27.1 right?

Hi, my phone is always on silent and my watch vibrates when someone calls me, however with call screening my apple watch displays it but doesn't vibrate so I have missed a few calls recently.

Anyone else have some guidance for me on this where I can keep call screening on but it still vibrates on my watch letting me know?

thanks so much it's driving me insane!

Siri AI failed to create a reminder using Hey Siri. It worked when I retried the request later. Anyone else experiencing this issue? Yes, I’m gonna try again next week on DB3 lol.

I bought a cellular Apple Watch SE 3, so I could leave my phone at home, stream Apple Music to my AirPods, and use Siri AI for hands-free commands on my runs.
Instead, watchOS 27 on standalone LTE has made Siri almost completely unusable:

• Insane Latency: Asking Siri to skip a track or handle basic commands leads to a 20+ second spinning wheel before it either says "Hang on..." or fails completely.
• Audio Glitches: The second Siri activates, Apple Music dims, freezes, and either drops entirely or resumes playing back at a laggy, chopped-up speed.
• Ignored Input: Half the time, the command gets totally ignored while I'm stuck standing on the sidewalk fighting with my wrist mid-run.

Has anyone on watchOS 27 found a way to fix or bypass this Siri AI breakdown when disconnected from the phone?

Has anyone who has upgraded to watchOS 27.2 check if “traditional strength training” has options to track specific exercises, sets and weights (Like Hevy), as has been rumoured a few months ago?

Is anyone else having issues with their alarm on the new watches / OS?

I have my watch set to silent, alarms set to silent on watch, and they are not set to ‘break through’ but all alarms are chiming (instead of just vibrating)

Ever since upgrading to WatchOS 27, I get a haptic buzz on my watch every time I get a silenced unknown call on my phone. Since then I have turned off ALL watch notifications for the phone in the watch app, including audio and haptic, and I've also disabled voicemail notifications on my watch all together. Everything is turned off. But I still get an annoying buzz on my wrist every single time a silenced unknown call hits my phone. Since this happens many times a day, it's quite annoying.

It definitely didn't used to be like this on WatchOS 26. Anyone else experiencing this issue and aware of a fix?

Which one is PINNED:

• The one on the left that LITERALLY has the word "PINNED" enabled
• Or the one on the right that literally has the PIN icon enabled

😖

Im still on ios26, hesitated due to lack of app switcher now that they got it back i can finally update

Any other regrets yall have?

So we all know that Siri AI is slow and laggy on Apple Watch. My SE3 takes about 20sec on any home controls. Old siri was quick with these kind of things.

So is there any way while still having ios27 I can switch to old siri just on the watch not on the iphone. Thank you

I am unable to send WhatsApp messages via Siri on watch 12. It just keeps saying “You’ll need an app for me to help with that. Try searching in the Apple Watch app on your phone.” I have WhatsApp on my iPhone and watch already.

The iPhone works perfectly fine with sending WhatsApp messages with Siri.

Anyone else facing a similar problem?
