Is your iPhone on iOS 15.0?

Yeah- I’m on the iOS 15 beta but it’s latest version

Try updating your iPhone first. It is possible that watchOS 8 requires the shipping version of iOS 15.

I think I’m on the GM- it’s showing no update available. I also tried from my watch. I need to go to Apple store Friday to pick up case for iPad mini. I can ask them if I don’t figure it out by then.

What's your iOS Build Version (19A…)? You can get it in Settings, General, About and tap on Software Version. I'm at 19A344, and release is apparently 19A346.

Apparently I’m on 15.0 (19A344). But you were able to update… hmm. Have done iOS beta for years and never has this issue.

I'm on the same build. It just appeared for me; I can't install it until I get back home in 2 hours.

Follow-up question: Is your Apple Watch on watchOS 8 Beta?

No it’s not. I tried it years ago but I assume since I never signed up again it’s not any longer.

Guess what. An old profile was on there. I deleted and rebooted watch and bam! Thanks so much for your help.

Sounds like the Beta update feed didn’t get the current release version.

I will check once the 15.1 Beta starts to see if it will just rollover to that instead.
