Xcode Preview Broken

On May 1 I started to see this image instead of watch UI preview. It worked well before. I didn't update Xcode, neither I deleted or installed any new simulator OS. It was harmful to my work, since simulator download is 4GB and I need to wait when it downloads, instead of reviewing PRs and closing tasks.

Did anyone had the same issue? Do you know how to prevent it?

Turns out this happened to many developers and happens from time to time. Some people solved it by following the button and downloading the SDK, but there's a faster solution: just reboot your Mac.

Hi,

Sorry to hear you are having problems getting watchOS previews working again. Is just previews broken, or do you also see issues when triggering a build+run targeting a watchOS simulator?
