Frustrating that on every iOS update the watch faces Mickey and Minnie lose their voice tone
It may seem minor and basically it is. But it’s very tiring that every time it needs updating

This needs to be fixed

Siri is also missing her voice. It gets downloaded back when it’s on the charger.

Their voices are working properly on my  Watch, but I'm running watchOS 5.1 and iOS 12.1.

I have the same and still not working properly with voice except for Siri...she is working

I updated to the latest beta last night and now my Mickey watch face is not stating the time.

I’m not concerned though. Like I stated in a previous thread, I use the Explorer watch face 99% of the time. Besides, I’m sure the issue will be resolved soon.

While connected to the charger, go to Settings > Siri on your watch and it will download the voices.

Every time I’ve reset my Apple Watch 3 I have lost Mickeys voice. What you need to do is connect your watch to your home WiFi (not as easy as it should be with the drawing pad) and have your phone on the same WiFi. Set the watch on the charger and all will be corrected about 20 min or so later.

The same happens on your iPhone if you use a different Siri voice. All the voices are not stored locally to minimize space needed. They get downloaded when requested. So after a reset of any Apple device, throw it on a charger on a WiFi network and everything will restore.

I know this. It’s tiring. They don’t have to make it this way
