One UI5 watch beta will download to my phone, but will not transfer to watch (GW4) for installation. Have made multiple attempts. 

Any suggestions appreciated.

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback.

Have you tried to download the update on your Watch via Settings > Software Update > Download and install?

We appreciate your contribution to the Beta Program.

Regards,

One UI Beta Team

I was not able to reply via the Members app, but I turned off BT and turned on WiFi, and downloaded the update directly to the watch, and the rest is history.  I prefer to use BT, because WiFi just chews up your watch battery, but you gotta do what you gotta do!

Thanks for getting back to me, though this beta thread is like sending info via Morse Code.

Iโ€™m actually running into the same issue right now and had the exact same question. The beta downloads fine to my phone as well, but it just wonโ€™t transfer over to the watch for installation no matter how many times I try. Itโ€™s a bit confusing because everything looks like it should work, but the process just doesnโ€™t complete.

Iโ€™ve also tried a few basic things like reconnecting the watch and restarting both devices, but no luck so far. Iโ€™m wondering if itโ€™s something related to the beta itself or maybe a compatibility/transfer bug. Would really appreciate if anyone has found a reliable fix or workaround, because Iโ€™m stuck at the same point.

I had the same problem. I found that turning off my VPN on my phone allowed the smooth transfer to my watch.
