Not many people have managed to install it, since Apple has been quick and removed it, but if you have managed to install it, be careful, since the risk you run by having it is unknown, as it could not only restart your device , but end up ruining it.
watchOS 11.1 beta 3 withdrawn due to problems
Reddit users were the first to report this, with different problems. In some people, the device was freezing and they had to restart it, others saw how it turned off and on by itself, and in the worst cases, after freezing, despite restarting it, it continued and continues in that state, so they do not really know how to solve it, since they do not They may not even leave it running to install a new version the moment Apple releases it.
This is a problem for many, since we are talking about a developer betawhich does not offer the guarantees that Apple does ensure in the official one, and that will mean that many may be left without a watch, since the company would not be responsible, especially if we are talking about a model without a guarantee.
That’s where what we always say comes from, and that is that trying a beta first is great, but it has many risks, as we have seen, since you could leave any device like a paperweight.
As for an iPhone, connecting it by cable, we can solve many problems, however, with an Apple Watch things change, and if an update goes wrong, forcing a new one will become much more difficult, if not impossible if it does not react. and it turns on correctly, since you will have to write the PIN on the screen to accept a new one, and if it freezes and doesn’t let us, there is little we can do.
In summary, be careful with installing betasespecially on your Apple Watch, and if you are one of the lucky ones who installed this third beta of watchOS 11.1 and the watch has not frozen yet, I would not touch it much, and would wait for a new one to solve the problem, since you could be left without it, since the exact reason for the error is not known, and it could be due to opening an app, receiving a certain notification, etc.
And you, are you one of those who has to install the beta first, or will this never happen to you because you are cautious and always wait for others to install it first to see if there are errors? I am one of the impatient people, although in this case I have been lucky, since when I was going to do it, there was no longer any available, so I have been saved, although I could have been one of those affected by it. I’ll be more careful next time, and at least waiting a few hours for this can save us from serious mistakes.
