Users Report Wallet Sync Issues Between iPhone and Apple Watch After Update to iOS 15.3, watchOS 8.4

Some users are reporting a problem with the sync of Wallet passes/cards/coupons from iPhone to Apple Watch following the update to iOS 15.3 and watchOS 8.4.

User @7h31ll3g4l posted about the issue on reddit and numerous others have corroborated the report.

@IrishSmurff - Same here, updated this morning, iPhone 13 on 15.3, watch series 6 on 8.4, passes on phone not syncing to watch, but deleting pass on watch wipes it from both


@magebarf - iPhone 12 and Apple Watch Series 3. No coupons/membership cards added on the iPhone have successfully been synced to the Apple Watch since I updated to 8.4 and 15.3. Interestingly enough, removing a card from the iPhone does not seem to sync to the Watch either, but removing a card that exists on both devices on the Watch successfully syncs to the iPhone.

There are also multiple threads on Apple's discussion forums about the issue. [1] [2]

Until Apple resolves the problem, share a pass through iMessage to yourself. Then on your Apple Watch, open Messages and add the pass to Wallet.
