Apple today announced the launch of a repair program for the Apple Watch Series 6 to address an issue that can cause a small percentage of the devices to display a permanently blank screen in certain circumstances.
There’s a bug in the 40mm Apple Watch Series 6 that affects watches manufactured in the period between April 2021 and September 2021. An Apple Watch Series 6 owner can use the serial number checker on the website to see if their device is eligible for a repair program by entering their serial number.
