August update

[stmiranda]

So I did the tappity tap thing and triggered the August update. Put watch on charger overnight. The update seemed to happen but still shows July 2024. Have power cycles watch and tried forcing the update again. Anyone else have the update and showing August?

While Google says this is the August 2024 security patch, your Pixel Watch will show the security patch as July 2024 on the System updates page. This is despite the build number (240805.001.A2) matching what Google mentioned in its announcement. It appears the company forgot to change the security patch's month with this release. Still, you should rest assured knowing your watch is running the latest security patch despite the watch's About page saying otherwise.
