Hello,
I got myself an Apple watch Ultra 2 last month for my birthday & love it, but for some strange reason, It's not finding today's update of WatchOS 11.4.
I keep checking & it just tells me that 11.3.1 is the latest.
has anyone else seen this?

Did you check via your phone instead of watch. Is your iOS 18.4?
ios 18.4 is up-to-date
Hello,
Yes, I beta tested iOS 18.4 & installed today's official update.
What else might I try?

Before do a restart of the watch, use the phone to check for update for the watch.
The 9 to 5 Mac publication…
The 9 to 5 Mac publication updated their report on the watchOS release to say it has been pulled by Apple. Doesn't show for me either.
Why did Apple pull the update?
Hi,
I hadn't seen that anywhere.
I'm curious to know why Apple pulled the update?
11.4
Have on my watch 9. I downloaded it as the RC and now is the public version.
Should I enable betas then?
Hi,
Should I enable the setting to receive beta updates then?
I plan to test betas in the future, but 11.4 would've been the very first update for my new watch & I didn't want to risk bricking it.
Update Pulled
Hi KE8UPE,
The update appears to have been initially released, then pulled. The release of watchOS 11.4 was something that I was reasonably confident about having seen in the mainstream media, but nevertheless it is something that I should have double-checked before posting our own announcement. I am sorry for the confusion.
Someone said they got it by enabling betas
Hi Micheal,
Someone said they got the update by enabling betas.
Should I try that?
I plan to test them in the future anyway.
You Could
Hi KE8UPE,
You definitely could try enabling betas. However, my guess is that there is likely a good reason they pulled the update; so it might be better to just wait for 11.4 to be released to the public. watchOS beta is a whole different animal because you cannot downgrade the software if something goes wrong.
Not Finding It Here Either!
I too noticed yesterday, when trying to update the watch that it kept telling me that Watch OS 11.3.1 was the latest version available, and although I was very confused, after checking AppleVis and noticing that others had the same issue and that Apple had pulled it, I was glad to see I wasn't losing my mind. LOL
I've tested WatchOS betas before.
Hi Michael,
I've tested watchOS betas before & am fully aware that downgrading, once a beta is installed, is impossible.
Thanks for posting that anyway, as others may not have been aware.
RC
The RC beta more likely is no longer there. When I got it on Friday, I turn of beta off to avoid betas that I did not want. No issues with watch 9 so far.
Confirming
As I commented on the other post I neighter saw the WatchOS update. I don't think it's a model problem since I don't have a Ultra watch, I got an Apple Watch Se instead. Only thing is, the only way I looked is through the Watch application on my associated iPhone, but I don't think that makes any difference at all.
Bye!

Problems appear to be fixed
Hi guys, I just checked my Watch app once again on my associated iPhone and, surprise surprise, the update is now available! Yay!
Confirming availability of watchOS 11.4
Yes, I can confirm that watchOS 11.4 is now available as well.
Any big changes for us Voiceover users?
Yes
I checked also, figure apple do another release after the RC, yes, got it.
