here's how to reset
your apple watch if you need to reset
your watch for any reason
such as too many password attempts there
are two ways to reset it
one is through the watch app and the
other is using the watch
itself using your iphone to unpair your
apple watch resets it to factory
settings
your apple watch is automatically backed
up to the companion iphone
if your iphone is set up to back up to
icloud
the apple watch backup is included first
make sure to keep your iphone and watch
close together
during the unpairing process open the
watch app on your iphone
at the top select all watches
now select the info button next to the
watch that you want to unpair
then select unpair watch
you may need to confirm the unpairing
process using your apple id password
if your watch has successfully unpaired
you'll see the start
pairing message within the app another
option
is to do a reset on the watch itself
open the watches settings
next choose general
then scroll down and select reset
and then click erase all content and
settings
resetting on just the watch does not
remove the activation lock
which means if it's lost or stolen
someone cannot connect it to their
iphone
activation lock is removed when
unpairing via the iphone
but another option is to use icloud
go to icloud.com on your computer and
sign in with your icloud
information go to find iphone
select all devices at the top of the map
and choose your apple watch
click erase apple watch
your apple watch should now be unpaired
reset
and ready for use with a different
icloud account
