iPhone 11pro won’t connect to Apple Watch??

Hello!

Please make sure you are running the latest iOS on your iPhone, iOS 13.1.1

• try connecting to a different network
• restart both your iPhone and watch
• try manually pairing your watch instead
• make sure both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are enabled on your iPhone 11
• try removing the Apple Watch app on your iPhone 11 and reinstalling it to see if you can pair

Hello, Verizon rep here.

I had an issue with a new iPhone 11 pairing with a customers older Apple Watch I had to reset the network settings in order for the phone to recognize the watch.

hope this helps!

• Unpair watch from previous (or reset factory settings)
• When you pair with new iphone it will request to update (if any exists), do it
• After this would not pair !!
• My fix: again reset watch to factory
• This reset allowed me to pair with new iphone 11 with ease

hardware:

Iphone 11 with IOS13

Apple watch 42mm Model: MQL12QL/A

I had an issue when I bought my 11 pro with the watch not pairing at all.

I tried everything until a reset on the watch worked.

Just do a factory reset on the watch but keep data plan and you will be able to scan the watch face once again.

How do you reset the network settings? I had an appointment with the geek squad at Best Buy, and the tech said there is just no way to connect my new iPhone 11 with my Series 2 Apple Watch. Please help!

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!! My watch is back up and running. Apple Support set up an appointment for me with the Geek Squad at Best Buy, and the rep told me that my watch to too outdated and needed to just buy a new one. Coming here and receiving this support has saved me hundreds of dollars. Thanks again!!

THANK YOU!

I bought a new Verizon I-Phone 11 and could not get it to pair with my Apple Watch-3.

Once I reset the network settings it worked instantly!

Settings->general->reset->reset network settings> PIN

Then your phone will go offline for 30 seconds while it resets. Log back into the phone after it resets and go to apple watch app and then start the pairing process. You may need to update the watch before it will finish pairing.

same here.. i recently upgraded from 6s to 11 and i have to pair my watch almost every single day.

It automatically loses its pairing and restart the whole process again and again.

Apple do something..

Is your watchOS upgraded to 6.1.1??

i too had the same problem with series 3 after upgrading to iphone 11..

Tried this and the problem went away for now ( no resets over the past 24 hours)

when it resets next time/reset the data in your apple watch

follow the pairing process.

At the screen where it wants to "restore from backup"/"select as a new watch" ,do "select as a new watch".

Upgrade the watchOS to 6.1.1 immediately.. this worked for me..

Once the pairing process is complete upgrade it

This worked! I have been having this issue since I got my iPhone 11 a month ago. My outgoing texts were showing as new texts on my watch and I’d have 98 texts on my watch and zero on my phone! I was 1 step away from buying a new watch! Thanks!

This worked for me. Thanks!

This worked for me. Thank you!

Settings->general->reset->reset network settings

Thanks! It worked

The network setting on the phone or the watch?
