Apple Releases watchOS 27.0.1 to Fix Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 Bug
The patch targets a bug that caused random reboots on some new Apple Watch models, according to Apple and MacRumors.
- Apple released watchOS 27.0.1 on Wednesday to fix unexpected restarts affecting Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4 users.
- Many users reported their watches randomly rebooted while using Maps, Siri, or recording workouts; MacRumors suggested the Neural Engine might be timing out.
- Users attempted several workarounds including resetting or restarting devices, but reboots persisted; one Redditor found success by powering off and on, though others experienced continued failures.
- To install the update, users should open the Apple Watch app, tap My Watch, then navigate to General > Software Update. Apple recommends installing it immediately.
- The Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4 feature the S11 chip and upgraded heart rate monitoring, intended to be Apple's "best" smartwatches despite the software issue.
