HA Apple Watch Complication not shown in Watch App

Mobile Apps Home Assistant Companion for Apple

Hi there,

i never get the Apple Watch Complication with HomeAssistant work.

In the Companion-App, the Apple-Watch Menu looks like this:

It says Manual Update “not enabled” and below “Error updating”.

In the Apple Watch App, I choose the “Modular” Watchface. But there is no “Home Assistant” in selecting a complication.

I have an iPhone 15pro and a Apple Watch 7. All OS/Apps are up to date.

Has anyone ever had this problem and been able to solve it?

In German:
Bei mir liefen die Home Assistant Komplikationen für die Watch noch nie. Ich vermute da passt was nicht, da beim “manuellen Update” bereits “nicht aktiviert” angezeigt wird und darunter “Fehler beim Update”.
Die von mir gebauten Komplikationen werden in der Apple Watch App nicht angezeigt. Es wird auch “Home Assistant” bei der Komplikationsauswahl nicht angezeigt.

Ich nutze das iPhone 15pro mit einer Apple Watch 7. Alle Apps und OS sind aktuell.

Weiß hierzu jemand vielleicht Abhilfe?

Gents, you’d need to ensure the complication you defined is also configured in an active watch face. Without, you’ll never see anything to be updated. See further instructions on how to setup watch faces here:

Hi. Same issue for me as well.

Not sure if related (since video is 2y old now), but in the video at 4:04, it is mentioned that certain complication templates are deprecated: https://youtu.be/7t22v6Wh6HM?feature=shared

Indeed, the docs list them as legacy.

The only problem is that for the Modular watch face, you cannot pick anything which is not deprecated!

I’ve tried the Infograf watchface and could display a HA icon at the bottom right.

Ok. Got it running by using exactly the Graphic Circular complication for my Modular watch face.
Nothing else worked on this watch face.

The above video is out of date, it doesn’t show the same menu options.

It appears the missing detail is you have to choose the right complications that are supported by the face you’re using.

Below the complications in the companion app it tells you which watch face the complication works with. I have managed to get it going by choosing the correct complication and setting the watch face but unfortunately the watch face I use isn’t listed so I had to play around to find the face’s supported complications. There must be a list of complications types each face supports, but I didn’t find it with a quick search.

I also haven’t managed to get it to run a specific script (toggle my garage door state) on a single press, it just pops up a list of scripts which is mildly annoying.
