I just bought a new Apple Series 5 watch. I removed the old one from my iPhone, and paired the new watch to my phone. The activity app On the watch won’t sync with my phone. My history stopped when I changed watches.
I have rebooted both the phone and watch and still won’t sync. Any ideas?
The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:
How to restart your Apple Watch - Apple Support
Restart your iPhone - Apple Support
If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup. This deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
