Tap on Download and Install when watchOS 9.2 shows up. watchOS updates tend to take a while to download and install therefore don’t be left surprised at the end of it. It’s best that you perform these updates overnight so that you wake up to a fully updated watch the next morning. While you are here, check out the following:
