Watch ping not working

I've upgraded an iPhone 6 to iOS 9 and ever since the Apple Watch running 1.0.1 doesn't ping the phone.

Ive re-paired the two but still no joy.

anyone seen this or know what's wrong ?

Try resetting the network settings on your iPhone (you will need to re-establish any Wi-Fi connections afterwards, if configured):

- Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.

Then restart both your iPhone and Apple Watch:

- To restart Apple Watch: Press and hold the side button until you see the Power Off slider; Drag the slider to turn off completely; Afterwards, press and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo.

Didn't work for me .

That solution is only working for the moment. After some hours/days the problem is unfortunatelly back.

It is very sad, that the apple devices  are no longer working by itself. That was the greatest benefit in past compared to microsoft or android...

Why Apple can not solve problems anymore without creating 10 new problems? Apple devices are very expensive and i dont want to be a free beta-tester for cupertino...  For me that is not what "think different" means...

I have had this problem since I upgraded my iPhone 6 to iOS 9, and my watch to 2.0. I filed a bug report on this too. 

I have done resets and restarts and the problem goes away for a while and then resurfaces.   If I send a message or an email from my phone and then I try to ping, then it works for a little while.   But the issue is, if you can't find your phone, and you're not sure if ping  is working, then ping is useless.  If you must have your iPhone, and must reset/rest the pair, then what use is ping?  

So I no longer consider ping a feature at all of the new apple watch.    

I thank Jonathan for his suggestion. 

Since ping really doesn't work anymore, and I only get about 80% of my texts on the watch (even when the phone is next to me), I agree with otti, I paid too much to be a beta tester.  

Makes me think about the reliability of rumored Apple car......     

SInce ios 9.1 and watch os 2 the function is working!

If you have still problems afte the update, do the following (that helps in my case):

boot the iphone new by pressing home and display button for some seconds

boot the watch new by pressing the site-button (under the wheel) for some seconds

This worked for me
