I updated my barely 1-year-old Apple Watch Ultra 3 to watchOS 27. Never installed any betas on it.

Tried to set a timer via Siri

after a spinner for several seconds:

"Cannot set a timer because the Clock app is not installed on this device."

F to the ninth heck whoever is in charge of that crap at Apple.



Who would have thought that a watch needed a Clock app?


Setting timers is literally the only thing I ever use Siri for, so it's not like this is some edge case.


After seeing how bad the Apple Watch became, I skipped updating it this year.

There is no use for it if I cannot simply raise my wrist and set up a timer or create a reminder without any problems.

I’m not going to have a full conversation with Siri when I’m moving about and need to remember something or need a quick timer for a meal.

Do these engineers ever use these products or do they simply throw it away after the fancy presentations they do?


Hopefully AI will eventually do to operating systems what it has started to do to Photoshop and Office etc.

These corpulent Hutts are long overdue for a choking
