watchOS 5.1 update withdrawn following Apple Watch crashes

Apple has just publishedseveral new updatesimportant, for its different operating systems. Namely iOS 12.1, watchOS 5.1, tvOS 12.1 and macOS 10.14.1. However, the latest version of watchOS has a serious problem.

Indeed, for some Apple Watch users, the updatewatchOS 5.1 completely blocks the watch. Apple quickly decided toremove this updateto identify and correct the problem.

A small number of Apple Watch users are reporting on social media that their watch no longer works following the upgrade to watchOS 5.1.

More precisely, it isstuck on Apple logo, even restarting the watch or the paired iPhone does not change anything.

The annoying thing about blocking an Apple Watch is that there is no way to regain control of a blocked watch. It's necessarymust pass the Savings in the Apple Store, or by post. As a result, it is unavailable for several days.

Only Apple has a tool to restart a blocked Apple Watch. This tool connects to the diagnostic port, which is hidden in the location where the bracelet is attached.

If you downloaded the update,definitely don't do it, and wait for a new version which should be released by Apple soon.
