Paul HudsonSomething is very wrong on my iPhone and/or watch, and I don’t have the first clue how to fix it. Basic apps – Maps, Weather, etc – re-ask for permission when I open them. Complications I’ve had on my watch face for almost a decade are disappearing. I’m hoping 26.1 comes soon 😭
Apple folks: I have provided a sysdiagnose in a feedback report for both watch and phone, but I feel like it’s the most useless report imaginable – I can’t give you any hints what caused it, what triggers it, when it changes, etc. FB20399925.
LoriHC@twostraws Thanks for the report, Paul! Hopefully there’s some info in the phone logs, as logging is off on customer builds of watchOS by default (tho you can install a profile to turn it on; it's on by default on beta builds).
@lorihc D’oh! Sorry, I’m not running a beta. I did find some before and after screenshots to attach, though, in case there’s something about the face / complication configuration.
Matthew Loewen@lorihc @twostraws I'm having a similar problem with my child's iPhone and age restrictions. Apps that I've granted permission to (even revoked and re-approved) are being deleted. Sometimes they reappear and then disappear. Submitted both customer feedback and FB20412333.
@matthewloewen @twostraws That’s likely a different issue, and has been routed accordingly!
Adam Salih@twostraws this has been happening to my fiance for almost two years now, spanning across two iPhones and two apple watches; spotify and some system complications always disappearing after few months of use. I was able to narrow it down to the iOS backup, as everything else was factory reset, unfortunately, she refuses to reset her iPhone data, so she started looking for some watch alternatives
Lori Olson@twostraws I had that a couple versions of iOS ago. The solution ended up being: log out of iCloud* on every device, and reboot every device before attempting to log back in. A bit drastic, but it worked.
*Make sure everything is backed up first of course.
Ezat@twostraws I had a recent issue where I was locked out of Messages on my devices. I had to call Apple Support, where it was escalated. It eventually lead to doing some sort of reset of the iCloud account at the Apple server level and was done using an internal Apple webpage.
