Apple Watch

So my ex gave me her Apple Watch when she got a new one but it’s still paired to her old account. I have the account and password but it was locked. How can I unlock it

Here are two ways to unpair your watch if you no longer have the paired iPhone:

  • See the 'How to erase your Apple Watch if you don't have your iPhone' section of:

Unpair and erase your Apple Watch - Apple Support

  • With a web browser, go to: https://www.iCloud.com and sign in with the Apple ID. Open Find My iPhone and select All Devices (at the top). Then click the Apple Watch, select 'Erase Apple Watch', and select Next until the device is erased. Finally click "X" next to remove the Apple Watch.

Then you can pair it to your iPhone with your Apple ID account.
