watchOS 6 Bug: Greyscale infograph when changing colour of dial

[jakeenzo]

Anyone else has this? When using the infograph watch face, if you set the colour of the dial to anything but black or white then the watch face goes greyscale.

Using Series 4

Would have taken a screenshot from the watch itself but that also appears to be broken 😂

EDIT: Apparently this is by design. God knows why...

man this is terrible... i guess i can't have a blue watch dial anymore cause i hate the monochrome complications.

what were they thinking??

When they mentioned giving us monochrome options I got excited, because I wasn’t a fan of that explosion of color, but now just about everything is white. I’d rather have it the old way again; this is just terrible! Monochrome should just be a separate option and look like the California face.

go to customise, pick black or white and the colours should come back. I did a watch reset which I don't think was necessary.. hth

I don’t like it either.

yes which is what i did at first, because i don't like the look of the white tickmarks. i really liked the old one set to blue... the new one actually seems more colorful than it was and somehow looks more garish when the color is there. so garish that i gave up and set the tickmarks back to blue and have had to just get used to the white complications.

it's bunk - they shouldn't remove features, just add new ones. how hard would it have been to also have "infograph analog mono" as well as the original infograph?

I commented. a little heavier, in this thread...

Series 3 won’t update to watchos6

The watch app says 5.3.1 is the latest os. The paired iPhone is a 6s plus with iOS 13.1. Is this normal? thx -d
