On your iPhone launch the ‘Find iPhone‘ app and sign into your iCloud

Now from the list of your Apple devices tap on the Apple Watch you want to play sound on.The Watch should appear on a map along with other Apple devices owned by you.Tap on the Watch icon.


Finally from the menu tap on the ‘Play Sound’ button.This should start playing a pinging sound on your Apple Watch, which would help you in finding where it is.

Once you find the device simply tap on the ‘Dismiss’ button in order to make the pinging sound stop.
