Hi everyone,
I’m currently researching Apple Watch pairing behavior and diagnostic logging across different setup modes.
I can reliably trigger a co-sysdiagnose on an Apple Watch when it is paired in a normal standalone / standard configuration. In that case, the expected co-sysdiagnose archive appears on the paired iPhone.
However, in a Family Setup / managed account scenario, behavior is different:
The watch provides the expected haptic feedback after the sysdiagnose button combination But no co-sysdiagnose archive appears on the paired iPhone afterward The same hardware behaves differently depending on pairing/account configuration
My question is:
Is co-sysdiagnose collection, transport, or availability intentionally different for Family Setup / managed Apple Watch devices?
For example:
Are logs stored elsewhere? Is transfer to the organizer iPhone restricted? Is co-sysdiagnose unsupported in Family Setup mode? Are additional conditions required, such as Wi-Fi, charging state, unlocked devices, or a longer delay?
I may be missing something obvious, but I have not found documentation describing this difference. If this is expected behavior, I’d really appreciate a pointer to the relevant documentation.
Thanks a lot!
