Dear Community / Apple,
I would like to ask in the name of many Smart Home Community,
There is any developing / There is any future plan about make Apple Watches able to read NFC Tags / Stickers?
Many of us would like to use Apple Watch to use Home Automations with NFC Stickers, but we have to use our iPhone instead of the Watch, what would be the most logical way to use these things.
We does not really understand why this was not added by default, and why we cannot find any official information about this?
Please provide us some answer, at least we should know should we still wait for this feature or this is not gonna be enabled by Apple?!
Thank you very much,
Gery

We want to develop a watchOS App, which can send commands to intelligent robots of non-Apple devices through Bluetooth. I wonder if the function can be changed. We are looking for your help.

Hello apple, hello creative developers,
I will present an idea for AirDrop, which I hope will be liked!
It's about having a bridge between transfers thanks to apple devices, which could strengthen the brand's ecosystem.
In this suggestion during a transfer between two devices, I see the Apple Watch as a bridge that can view and then accept or refuse a file transfer between two iPhones.
And we could generalize this "bridge" system to other devices... For example, when transferring a file from an apple device to another apple device (excluding iPhone), the iPhone could make this bridge between both devices (always allowing you to view and then accept or refuse the transfer).
The examples of different bridges are numerous but I think you have understood!
For the good realization of this project I hope one day that AirDrop will be more open and will allow retouching by developers :)
But also that AirDrop will be able to detect sleeping devices, or at least that "bridge" devices that have come out of sleep are detectable, and allow the transfer to the sleeping device...
I know it's a lot of assumptions and suggestions but I find this system quite relevant. I'm waiting for your feedback, what do you think? Will we one day be able to see such a system arrive in the Apple ecosystem?
Thanks for reading, have a nice day, Mikael.
PS: sorry I am using google trad for this post, my knowledge in english is pretty low 😅

I'm using watchOS 9 beta 2 and I'm not getting the new running metrics in my workout app.
Using HKLiveWorkoutDataSource attached to a HKWorkoutBuilder
ActivityType is running
Tried enabling the collection of the new metrics
According to Jorge M in the WWDC labs:
"Yes, the new running metrics are also available for 3rd party applications. If you are using an HKLiveWorkoutDataSource attached to a HKWorkoutBuilder in your application, the new metrics would be collected by default."
The Health app does not show any Related Samples for these types. Am I doing something wrong or are they not available yet to 3rd party workouts? I do see them for the Apple Workout app.

Would be Watch OS App developer here.
Is an app like this possible?
Is an iOS app able to 'catch' the heart rate continuously from the Apple Watch which is running an Apple Workout App workout?
Thanks for your answers!

I have an 'Independent watchOS' project created in Xcode. To this project, I have linked few static libraries (as xcframework). The architecture is set to 'x86_64'.
I am able to successfully build this project and deploy it on the watch simulator. The code inside the static libraries also get called and things work fine.
However, when I try to build the same project from command-line, it doesnt work and fails with multiple errors.
Command used :
xcodebuild -target "TWWatchOSTemplateProj WatchKit App" -configuration Debug -destination 'platform=watchOS Simulator,arch=x86_64' build
Error :
/Users/abhishek.mohata/TW_Test_Projects/TWKshetrapalNative/TWLibs/TWBrahmaClient.xcframework:1:1: error: While building for watchOS, no library for this platform was found in '/Users/abhishek.mohata/TW_Test_Projects/TWKshetrapalNative/TWLibs/TWBrahmaClient.xcframework'.

Automatic signing is disabled and unable to generate a profile. To enable automatic signing, pass -allowProvisioningUpdates to xcodebuild.

When built from command-line, why is the error related to architecture comes while the same works from xcode ?
Also, is there anything to be added to the command for signing as the details are already present in the xcodeproj.

When I run watch app I got crash because I am using CMFallDetectionManager
but I have added key in .plist Fall Detection Usage Description , when I run the watch app I got this error
Fall Detection entitlement is required for this API

with health app on iOS ,
it says I did rem sleep for 59 minutes.
but all sum of sleep sample time is not 59 but 3.7hours.
time is also not accurate.
sleepSample log is as below
what may be the problem?

My guess the issue is that the iOS app is com.example.MyApp and the bundle id for the watchOS app is com.example.MyApp.watchkitapp, so WeatherKit works perfectly on the iOS app after registering bundleID and request WeatherKit service.
But it does not work on watchOS, giving me 401 errors. I assume it is because of the bundleID, but maybe something else.

everytime i try to connect the apple watch s2 with WatchOS 6.3 with the iPhone Xr with iOS 15.5 the watch app tell me to update de iOS, how do i fix it?
WWDC 2022 announced CallKit for WatchOS 9, but didn't explain how to use it. I was able to convert SpeakerBox sample from iOS to WatchOS. The CallKit itself seems works fine, but I stuck with networking issue. I cannot understand how to stream RTP audio. I have background audio enabled. If I configure audio session for CallKit with .playAndRecord category, I cannot specify .longFormAudio policy, as it's not applicable for this category. Without .longFormAudio low lever API is denied ("Path was denied by NECP policy").

Has anybody managed to get .preferredColorScheme(.dark) working in a watch app in the watchOS 9 beta simulator? It works fine for me on iOS, but doesn't seem to have an effect on the watch.
I'm on the first Xcode 14 beta.

Xcode 14 beta 1 is yelling at me that CKNotification initializer should return a non-optional value. This happens only AFTER letting Xcode upgrade my project settings.
The change that the upgrade project settings made was it merged my WatchKit and WatchKit extension targets into a single watch app target.
After doing so, this code will not compile which I know to be good.
// This line fails to compile with '
if let notification = CKNotification(fromRemoteNotificationDictionary: userInfo) {
// Do something
}
Compile error: "Initializer for conditional binding must have Optional type, not 'CKNotification'"
Feedback w/ sysdiagnose:
FB10282805 - watchOS / CloudKit: CKNotification doesn't return optional, xcode build failing after updating project settings for Xcode 14
I could not reproduce this in a sample application. I tried making a standalone watch app with Xcode 13, upgrading the project file with Xcode 14 beta, and then creating a CKNotification object--but that worked fine. :/

Hello all! I have a Series 2 Apple Watch, and I'm having trouble running an update due to the fact that I get an error that says I'm not connected to the Internet. This is perplexing because I am connected to the internet on my iPhone. I haven't used my watch in a long time, and I don't know what is happening. I did a factory reset and it says it won't continue setup until I get the watch updated. Maybe it's because my iPhone is running IOS 15.5? I'm not sure.
I reset both the watch and the phone but that didn't seem to work. I even tried changing the Wi-Fi network, and that didn't do anything either.
Has anyone else had this issue?
Thanks in advance!

Are there commands for testing watch complications in XCUITest?
So far I see that we can press the home button and rotate the Digital Crown in test
As of Xcode Version 14.0 beta (14A5228q) the XCUITest record function doesn't work.
Can't find anything in debugDescription to helpout either with reaching complications
