Hey Loyd06,


Your Apple Watch is water resistant, however it isn't waterproof.


Is the Apple Watch powering on, but has no video? If so, follow the "Force restart your Apple Watch" section in this article: Restart your Apple Watch. A force restart may resolve the issue.


If the Apple Watch isn't powering on, following the troubleshooting steps here: If your Apple Watch won't charge or it won't turn on.


If articles above do not help, the issue may be hardware related. We recommend contacting Apple Support for additional assistance. To contact them, click here: Get Support.



Since the Apple Watch is water resistant, there are activities that you want to avoid while wearing it. They are listed below:


  • "Dropping Apple Watch or subjecting it to other impacts
  • Exposing Apple Watch to soap or soapy water (for example, while showering or bathing)
  • Exposing Apple Watch to perfume, solvents, detergRestart your Apple Watch - Apple Supportent, acids or acidic foods, insect repellent, lotions, sunscreen, oil, or hair dye
  • Exposing Apple Watch models other than Apple Watch Ultra to high-velocity water (for example, while water skiing)
  • Wearing Apple Watch while cliff diving or high diving
  • Wearing Apple Watch in a steam room
  • Wearing Apple Watch models other than Apple Watch Ultra in a sauna
  • Wearing Apple Watch Ultra in a sauna above 55° C (130° F)"
