My apple watch won't charge even with using two different chargers.

My apple watch won't charge even with using two different chargers. In fact when i noticed the watch won't charge, the watch app had also disappeared completely from my phone as well. Did anyone ever experience this?

Hey Lager1,


Thanks for sharing. I tried all of the above and nothing works. I'm stuck as to what the problem could be.

Hi KelliwW85,



The following steps address what you're describing specifically, and should provide a solution:


"If your Apple Watch won't charge, or a message on your watch says that charging with this accessory isn't supported, try these tips: 

  • Make sure that you're using the Apple Magnetic Charging Cable or USB-C Magnetic Fast Charging Cable that came with your Apple Watch.
  • Make sure that you plug the Apple Magnetic Charging Cable or USB-C Magnetic Fast Charging Cable all the way into the USB Power Adapter, then make sure that you plug the adapter all the way into a power outlet.
  • If you use a third-party charging stand, use the charging cable that shipped in the box with your Apple Watch.
  • Completely remove any plastic wrap from both sides of the charger.

  • Make sure that the back of your Apple Watch and the magnetic charger are clean.
  • Reposition the back of your Apple Watch on the charger. When the charger's magnets align correctly with your Apple Watch, a green or yellow lightning bolt green lightning bolt should appear on the watch face.*
  • Try a different Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Cable or USB-C Magnetic Fast Charging Cable, and a different USB Power Adapter. If your Apple Watch is out of power, you might need to wait a few minutes for the lightning bolt green lightning bolt to appear after you start charging your device. 
  • If your Apple Watch still won't charge, force it to restart. Press and hold both the side button and Digital Crown for at least 10 seconds, or until the Apple logo appears."
