Having successfully replaced mum's iPhone with a 13 Mini (thanks GZ!) I overlooked that her aged series ?3 watch is incompatible with iOS 18, doh.

Anyone out there with a small/ladies watch series 6 or newer they would like to sell? Pink / gold etc would be fine. The ones on here recently have been 45mm or larger.

Thanks in advance

I still have an old series 2 Apple watch and I think it is compatible with ios18. I haven't tested it, but it was compatible with ios17. It just doesn't get the latest watch updates. But the series 3 also hasn't had updates for years. This pages shows which are compatible https://support.apple.com/en-nz/118490

Thanks - am going by verbal feedback from mum on tech which is not always clear.
Looks like it will hang on in for the short term although I suspect battery life will determine useful life span (watch, not mum).

Apple can often be good with supporting old devices. I think itunes still supports the earliest ipods.
