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:

applefeedback://

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.

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.

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.
