Apple Delays Today’s Planned Software Upgrade For Its Watch, Citing Bug
Apple hasn’t explained what the exact issue is or when Watch users can expect the updated software to be released, saying only in a statement (via TechCrunch): “We have discovered a bug in development of watchOS 2 that is taking a bit longer to fix than we expected. We will not release watchOS 2 today but will shortly.”
The software upgrade is supposed to make the Watch perform faster and provide a new slate of face options for users. Previously, you couldn’t use your own photos as a watch face, something the software upgrade will now allow.
Apple also claims there will be more native apps — read: apps that come with the Watch that can’t be removed — that don’t require users to use their phones.
