Watch sync not working?

Is anyone else experiencing problems with syncing with their watch? Background app update is on, the watch is set to sync with the phone if it is nearby. But every time I use the watch app I have to wait while it syncs and given that I use it less because it doesn’t work, and it will say things like “last sync three days ago” this sync takes forever!

I mentioned it to support, and went through my settings with them, but they said it was a problem with Apple that they were waiting for them to sort. Really? Reminders and Things seem to be able to sync in the background OK.

Frustrating.

Yes, I’m waiting on that too, for a couple months I guess.

Same here. Fortunately this doesn’t impact my flow too much, I mostly use the watch for quick entry, so I just do what I need and let it sync at its pace. But whenever I need the latest data it is indeed frustrating.
