watchOS 2 beta almost unusable

watchOS 2 beta 1, is perhaps the worst beta I have ever had. Everything is broken on it, when I try to open apps, it just goes to a black screen, then after about 30 seconds the app will pop up. Also, the worst part is that whenever I push the digital crown to go home, Siri turns on. Also, I cannot dictate anything, and Siri takes years to load. "Hey siri", also does not work. I reported about 5 separate bugs, and it really annoys me that they are not acknowledged. Also I cannot debug my watchOS 2 apps on my Watch. And the watchOS 2 simulator never actaully runs my app. Very bad beta, I really do hope that they release a new beta on the 23rd, and not on the 30th (Apple Music launch day).

I've been ising the beta for about 3 days and have not experienced any of the symptoms described.

I reccomend you perofrm a full reset of the watch.

So you are saying if you hold your digital crown down Siri doesn't show up vlape? Because I have the same user experiences as David.

Here's how I got my "Hey Siri" to work. Here's a little trick, this work with most Apple Products and settings:


On the Watch goto Settings -> General -> Siri, Turn OFF Hey Siri. Turn OFF the Watch. Turn the Watch back ON, then go back to settings and turn Siri back ON.

Maybe it’s just my imagination,

Removing 'Battery' complication from watch face, "Hey Siri" work normally.
