Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
My watch sat uncharged for a few months and now it won't charge, it won't force reset after sitting on charger, etc.
It was working without any issues up until the point it drained of battery. Any suggestions to get it to take a charge so it can be used again.
If you store a device when its battery is fully discharged, the battery could fall into a deep discharge state, which renders it incapable of holding a charge. To understand Apple Watch performance and its relation to your battery, see:
