I can't send and receive iMessages on my Apple Watch Ultra 3 watchOS 26
Cause 1 of 7: There are problems activating iMessage
The first time you activate iMessage, it may take a while before the activation is completed.
Solution: Turn off iMessage in the settings on the paired phone and try setting up the phone for iMessaging again after some time.
