watchOS 10.2 "safari" bug question (please answer)
Hi, I use an Apple watch SE 1st gen and after updating to watchOS 10.2 whenever I tell Siri to search for a link or open a link in mail or messages, it goes into "safari" and just has a black screen. The link is green. Is this something I did? If so how can I fix it? And is this happening to anybody else?

TIL you can search for web results on your Watch, and a tiny version of Safari opens up on it.
My first thoughts. I’d restart, and if that didn’t work, I’d file a bug by typing this into Safari:
And if I was desperate to have it working again soon, I might try to reset the watch. Restoring an Apple Watch isn’t too terrible. Although you do need to wait around for it to do its thing.
Perhaps more useful - you can open webpages people send in a text.
It's pretty much a full web browser - just without any toolbar and text is very small.
I only use it for emails and texts. I figured it out from Siri when I tried to search the link with Siri. And also I tried those, and it didn't do anything so it might just be a bug
If you have the time, you should definitely report it and pass along your watch’s info with the bug report.
It works for me, so it might be a very specific combination of factors that cause it.
Yeah just sounds like a bug you're going to have to wait for Apple to fix.
Ok, thanks.
Ok, thanks.
I forgot to say that third-party apps work fine
