Watch Face sharing stopped working on watchOS 26 (CLKWatchFaceLibrary)
Since watchOS 26, watch face sharing has stopped working completely. I tested the following: Sharing via CLKWatchFaceLibrary Other public APIs Sharing via iMessage In all cases, the watch face cannot be reinstalled after being shared. This issue is not limited to my app. Large third-party apps such as Facer and other major watch face platforms are also affected, which suggests this is a system-level change or bug. Everything worked correctly before watchOS 26. Has Apple officially acknowledged this issue? Is there a recommended place to report or track this bug?

Apple Watch Modular Ultra issue for YEARS!
Hi. I’m not sure where to post it, but after 1.5 years with the AWU2 the main Watch face is still bugged, missing seconds (two digit) in format. In the attached example it shows “06:30:5” for 10 seconds until it hits ”06:31:00”. I’m not sure if it’s only related to Danish AWU’s. But it is so annoying, and has forced me to change watch to Garmin in the past. PLEASE FIX IT, please please.

How to share a wireframe to collaborators
Hi, I'm in the planning stages of developing and xcode iPhone app and as a new user who's looking for feedback on my wireframes from friends, I'm curious if there's a way to send app previews over the internet to people without xcode and without iphones? I'm imagining some kind of web-representation of an iphone that I user can interact with, with a mouse.

Swiping Watch faces always display 10:09 before exact time
I know it is not a developer question, but getting the answer may help understand what we can get or not get on Apple Watch after Watch10. Since WatchOS10.2 when swiping face, time is always displayed first as 10:09:31 before setting the correct time one second later. Just in the same way as a long press. But the interest of swipe is to have immediately a different face displaying the correct time. Why is it so ? Is it due to (probably) now using SwiftUI ? Or is it a quick fix, reusing most of code for Lon,g press case ? It did not behave so with WatchOS 9 or before. Is there a setting to change ? It is really inconvenient (and ugly). I filed a bug report: FB13466486

Watch Simulators always shows error "This watch face is not available on this watchOS"
I have created multiple faces, i want to test those on different watch series and watch OS. However i am not able to use simulators for that (iOS and WatchOS). To understand the case please do below steps. From simulator Open Apple watch app and share any face (create your own or share existing) Share via email or airdrop Drag this face into simulator again Error will be shown that face is not available for this device. If try to apply using below code, same error occur CLKWatchFaceLibrary().addWatchFace(at: url) I want to know how can i test my watch faces on different versions using simulators.

Deeplink to specific watch face from browser
I see it is possible to open the Watch app from Safari or Chrome using itms-watchs:// or watchface://. I would like to be able to deep link to (open) a specific watch face from the browser. I see this is possible from other apps like Facer, because if you tap a watch face in that app and then tap the watch button, you will see this: https://imgur.com/jLDnbBl I would guess the Facer app is using a URL scheme like watchface://, so I just need to know how I can do the same thing. I tried something like watchface://https://mysite/mywatchfaceimage.png but it does not work ("Safari cannot open the page because the address is invalid.").
