This morning both my apple watch and iphone were updated to ios 11 and watchos 4. While performance on the iphone was good, the same could not be said for the Apple Watch. So here is the deal: I preceded to unpair my and reset my apple watch. So after minutes of apple logo and loading circles, I get greeted with a screen which tells me to "Bring iPhone near Apple Watch". (This must be a new pairing feature similar to Airpods/Beats X) I followed all the instructions however my Apple Watch could not pair to my iPhone. Apple support told be to restore my iPhone to the latest iOS 10 version which I have meanwhile done. Now however I don't even get the chance to try and pair my apple watch. Not much I can do on the watch as it remains on the screen which tells me "Bring iPhone near Apple Watch".
I was wodnering whether I should update my iPhone to iOS 11 and try the pairing again, or is there any other solution? Has anyone else come across this issue? Every bit of info helps.
