If you’ve been finding your Apple Watch is failing to charge, you’re not alone. It’s a problem that was spotted back in December and it looks like the next watchOS update, due in the next few days, will mean it’s a thing of the past.
That’s not to diminish the problem, which was serious: for some users the Watch simply wouldn’t charge at all and for others it would all look like it was working just fine, only to stop completely after just a couple of minutes.
So, if your current charger is fine, it’ll continue to be fine. And if not? Well, charging by the Apple-supplied charging puck has proved effective in almost every case, thank goodness, though there were some isolated reports of Apple’s hardware not doing its job.So, when can we expect this fix to arrive?
The software is still in beta and it reached Release Candidate status on Thursday, January 20. Which means the general release could land this week, perhaps as soon as Tuesday, January 25.
