I’ve been told by O2 Guru’s that my new Apple Watch won’t activate if I’m using iOS 13 Beta. If I revert to iOS 12 I will lose all my data. Has anyone else had this problem?

Any recommendations?

Thank you

@BFranks @Did you make a backup of your data before going on the iOS 13 beta? If you did then there shouldn’t be an issue

I was lucky that there was a 12.4 backup available, an iTunes backup would have been safer. For some reason I didn’t do one, should have known better 😊
