Can they release an update that finally lets my Series 6 drop below 81%! Been paying AppleCare+ for years and that damn thing literally refuses to hit the 80% mark. I feel like they are doing it intentionally. One update actually made it go from 82% up to 84% again

Green tint issue is still not fixed on my AW4...

Unfortunately, it does not.

No fix for the tint issue on my Series 6 either.
Thank you both for the heads-up.

Can anyone confirm if this fixes the ‘green tinted screen’ issue?
Thanks in advance.

This update was surprisingly quick today. Thank you for the advice and initiating the update from the watch itself. I think that has made a difference.
