Apple released watchOS 8.3 for all supported Apple Watch models earlier this month. The update was received with great enthusiasm due to the improvements included, but apparently many have regretted it.
And all this because the new update σταματάει μυστηριωδώς τους φορτιστές τρίτων, καθιστώντας αδύνατο για τους κατόχους των Apple Watch να φορτίζουν τις Appliances them with anyone else charger except the one sold by Apple.
This the thread on reddit contains dozens of messages from Apple Watch owners claiming that their devices have been affected. The problem does not seem to be limited to the latest generation smartwatch. All models are affected and of course, there is no solution.
Surprisingly, it seems that not all third-party chargers are blocked after installing watchOS 8.3. Some users claim that their chargers, including some models of Belkin, continue to work properly, while others report that charging stops after a few minutes.
Of course, Apple did not say anything about this and the next update will probably be released in January. Until then, you can please the company but you better behave in the next update.
A solution released on Internet states that restarting the Apple Watch by holding the Digital Crown + side button until you see the Apple logo on the screen will fix the bug. You can then set your watch to charge. They say the Apple Watch will charge to 100% without any issues, but we haven't tested that.
