@OmniFocus I updated all my devices, but it says my Apple Watch is still running the old version. Migrate anyway? Is there some way to force that app to update? I assumed it was tied to the phone app.

@socraticreview You can manually force an update of the watch app by opening the App Store app on the watch, scrolling to the bottom, tapping the Account button, then tapping Updates.

Hope this helps!

@OmniFocus Thanks! Had an Apple Watch forever and not sure I ever opened the App Store on it directly.
