  • Apple Watch 4 and iPhone 6: Why not pair? (#401)
    I bought an Apple watch 4 and intended to pair and use with my iPhone 6.
    Contents:
    - In principle, can you pair Apple Watch 4 with iPhone 6? Yes!
    - Lets pair now... "iPhone Out of Date!"
    - Lets try to pair manually...
    - Why not pair?

    I tried both of these solutions and it didn't work on my Iphone 6plus. At first, I thought I was missing something or not doing the correct procedure until I stumbled on your video. So, it's not only me who has this problem after all. Great video btw :-)

    in such cases, Apple should offer the possibiliy to the user to downgrade their apple watch OS to match that of the phone, same as they do when upgrading it. otherwise it's just bad business practices.

    • @RepairDIY
      @RepairDIY  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes, I agree! Technically it is feasible but the Apple may not like to do it. I heard somebody bought a new watch with upgraded software and he was able to ask the shop to downgrade the watch to match his phone for free. They should make it free for all watch owners or make it possible online. Wish someday they do!

      Or just make the latest watch software compatible with the older phone. That would be a better idea.

      Hi, it is no longer supported by newer iOS phone, see the reference below. However if you have an older iPhone it may be paired Okay. Have a happy day!

      Apple releases updates for a minimum of five years for all of their products so that only ensured that new updates were being released until 2021. At the time of writing, the Series 2 can still be updated to watchOS 6.3, but will not update beyond that. It also won't be compatible with devices using iOS 15 or later.22 Jul 2022

    i did activate the watch with a freind mobile then DC , i am still using the apple watch without the iphone 6 for almost 3 years i did continue to use it since i find that i can get updates fom the watch it self . The iphone 6 is the most sold device more then 250 million device worlwide so apple are pushing peopole to buy higher devices anyway that didnt works with me as i used the watch for checking time and sport but soon i will get the iphone 12 because i would like to get more advanges not because of @apple strategy . cheers!

      i just got the samsung galaxy s23 ultra, which is much better than the iphone 14 so I will also keep my 12 pro max for another couple of years at least. these apple software updates that take functionality between their own products, is just not right. They get to decide when their own devices become incompatible between them since they make the software and hardware.

      If the apple watch has never been paired with iPhone 8 or above, you should be able to pair. However please note that iPhone 7 is no longer supported by Apple, iPhone is not supported by iOS 16. If the watch has been paired with an iPhone running iOS16, you will not be able to pair it again with iPhone 7. Have a good day!

      thank you for your comments. At the time, I did updated the iphone iOS 12 software first before pairing. The problem was that the apple watch 4 had been upgraded so that it was no longer possible to pair with iOS 12. only Apple would be able to downgrade the apple watch 4 software but that would be at a cost. have a good day!

    I have the same problem. I tried to pair my old iphone 7 plus with the apple watch 6 44mm, which worked seamlessly a couple of years ago, before I moved to iphone 12. but surprise surprise, the iphone is now unable to pair with the apple watch. the apple watch 6 box says it is compatible with iphone 6s or newer. this is apple planned obsolescence. I am returning an apple watch 8 since I cannot give my old apple 6 to my dad. also the 8 is not much different from the 6, zero innovation, same old design and processor. and the ultra is just plain ugly and too expensive, not worth it in terms of value to performance.
