Apple today seeded the second beta of watchOS 11.2 to developers for testing, but some users are unable to install the beta at this time, according to posts from affected users across the MacRumors Forums and social media.

The issue appears to be limited to the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2, at least based on the reports we have seen so far. Affected users are receiving a “Software Update Failed” message after attempting to install the beta.
Apple might have to re-release the beta to fix this issue. We will update this story as more details become available.
