How to Reset Apple Watch without Paired Phone
If you don’t have access to your paired iPhone, you can still reset your Apple Watch using the watch’s settings. This method is useful if you’ve lost your phone or it’s not working correctly. Here’s how to do it:
Step 1: Press and hold the side button on your Apple Watch until the Power Off slider appears.
Step 2: Drag the Power Off slider to the right to turn off your watch.
Step 3: Press and hold the side button again until the Apple logo appears on the screen.
Step 4: Release the side button and wait for your watch to restart.
Step 5: Once your watch is back on, go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.
Step 6: Follow the prompts to reset your watch.
Note that resetting your Apple Watch without a paired phone will erase all of your data and settings. If you have a backup, you can restore your data later. If you don’t have a backup, you will lose your data permanently.
It’s essential to keep in mind that you won’t be able to pair your Apple Watch with a new phone until you’ve reset it. Therefore, you’ll need to pair it with a new phone if you plan on using it again.
