Hello. Thank you for the quick reply. Are you also charging your Apple Watch while trying to turn it off? If so, this is expected behavior. You cannot turn off your Apple Watch while it is being charged. This is normal.


If you are still unable to turn off your Apple Watch with it off the charger, you may wish to force it to restart as per the steps at the bottom of this KB. This will restart your Apple Watch and may resolve the issue if it is unresponsive while off the charger.

Hello! What issues are you running into while trying to turn off your Apple Watch? You should be able to turn it off by holding the side button and dragging the "Power Off" slider to the right.
