Apple Inc. issued a software update Wednesday that it said addresses
some cellular-connectivity issues that have affected its newest
smartwatch.
The update comes two weeks after the company acknowledged some of its
new Series 3 model watches — the first to feature an LTE chip for
cellular service — had trouble connecting to cellular networks because
they were trying to join “unauthenticated Wi-Fi wireless networks” in
public places such as hotels and coffee shops.

said the new software, version watchOS 4.0.1, fixes the issue “in rare cases” where that occurred.
The company declined to elaborate on how it fixed the problem or why it
was occurring. It also didn’t say whether the fix resolved all
connectivity problems reviewers ran into with the Apple Watch Series 3.
