I have encountered this issues with Xcode 9.0.1. trying to upload App on the App store. So I can

Assets.xcassets -> WatchAppIcon

  • Open your WatchIcon.appiconset [email protected] in Preview
  • Export it unchecking alpha channel from it
  • Now upload watch app on iTunes store

You just need to put a white background on the image. The app icon is, I guess transparent in nature, so iTunes does not accept it. So please make sure by putting a white background on the app icon.

Thanks
