iPhone 13 will get fix for Unlock with Apple Watch issue soon, confirms Apple
India Today
Apple's Unlock with Apple Watch feature is not something you can use immediately on the new iPhone 13.
iPhone 13 rolled out in several markets last week, and while people were expecting to experience new things, they did not know they were in for a small inconvenience. The iPhone 13 comes with the “Unlock with Apple Watch” feature broken, leaving several users high and dry when they try to unlock the new iPhone using their Apple Watches while wearing masks. Apple has acknowledged the issue and assured users that a fix is coming soon.
In a support page named “if Unlock with Apple Watch isn’t working on your iPhone 13”, Apple has mentioned that “this issue will be fixed in an upcoming software update.” It also addressed the error message -- “Unable to Communicate with Apple Watch” -- the users are getting when they try to use the Apple Watch to unlock the iPhone with a mask on or when they are trying to set up Unlock with Apple Watch feature on their brand-new iPhone 13.
