    Installed the profile on iPhone after installing iOS 10 PB last night, Scribble is amazing and works very well.

    How stable is it, and what's the battery life like? I'd like to upgrade but wary of the fact that theres no downgrading...

    I've had no issues so far 5 days in. Battery seems pretty stable too. Not noticing any extra drain either just getting what I was before.

    The downgrading did concern me so I skipped beta 1, but I tend to read a lot of texts on the watch and my stock replies just don't cut it sometimes so Scribble was the deal breaker this time round. Beta 3 can't be too far off, maybe 2-3 weeks, so maybe try that? But for me it's been a solid experience.

    Yes. Open the watch app, go to General then under Software Update you'll be able to install it.

    Check you have the iOS 10 public beta profile installed. It should show up once you install it.

    There is no public beta for Watch OS 3.

    It's released to developers only. Reason being, you cannot downgrade to Watch OS 2 unless you send your watch to Apple.

    With a bit of searching you'll find the profile. And it works.
