Clarification: ...paired with the iPhone. And the iPhone is within range of the Watch. When the iPhone is out of range, that’ll change to Wi-Fi indicator or to four dots for cellular. Which radio is in use in the Watch, effectively; Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cellular.

On your iPhone, tap:

Watch > My Watch

The watch you are paired with should be the first item shown. Tap on it to be sure.


Alternatively, when your warts is near your iPhone, swipe up on the watch and you should see a green phone symbol at the top left corner that means you are paired with the watch. See the "Check the connection between your iPhone and Apple Watch\" section n:
