Hi guys, not sure if I am posting in the correct place. But I have the watch OS 3 beta on my watch, and up until today I had iOS beta 10 on my iPhone 6s. That was until a jailbreak was released today, so I reset my phone to iOS 9.3.3, and my phone is now saying that I have to update my software on my iPhone in order to use my watch again. Any fixes? Would love to stay jailbroken but at the same time if it isn't possible with watch OS 3 ill have to go back to iOS 10. Thank you guys for your help.
Got a tip for us?

I have bad news for you bud. You can't downgrade your watch from 3.0 back to 2.2.2. You have to have iOS 10 to use it.
Thank you for the reply. do you think there's any way to fake my iOS version? Obviously the watch is more important, I did spend a lot on it..
If you have AppleCare on your watch you can try calling Apple and being honest with them and saying you installed the beta but didn't know it only worked with iOS 10. They may (if you act nice) offer to swap out your watch with another that has 2.x on it.
Apple did this for me once. I've stayed away from the betas since.
I installed the beta I wasn't supposed to have is the issue, since it was leaked you know? Thank you again for your help.
