Apple delays watchOS 2 launch following discovery of bug

Written by Andre Yoskowitz @ 16 Sep 2015 1:43 User comments (2)

Although iOS 9 launched today as planned, Apple Watch owners will have to wait a bit longer for watchOS 2 as Apple has found a bug that will delay launch of the operating system.

"We have discovered a bug in development of watchOS 2 that is taking a bit longer to fix than we expected. We will not release watchOS 2 today but will shortly," added an Apple spokesperson.

The bug is still unspecified so we don't really know what it affected, but Apple should be more forthcoming in the coming days especially if the bug requires an even longer delay.

BREAKING: Apple found a bug in WatchOS2 and is NOT releasing the software today as planned. More details coming.

I'm a network engineer and actually a part-time waiter too. I've NEVER seen anyone wearing an Apple watch. Samsung yes, and one other which I forgot but NEVER an Apple watch.

Wearable tech is completely frivolous and has little to no use.

Now........if they invent the watch that has built in cellular, wifi, bluetooth, and EVERYTHING AN S6 HAS then it's worth buying into. Otherwise it's nothing more than a wasted tether.

That, and it's another battery meter to keep track of.
