Apple Watch will not pair with new iPhone 14

I recently upgraded from i phone 12 to i phone 14. Everything works fine except that the old i watch will not pair with the new phone. The old phone has been cleaned in preparation for return.

First, make sure that both devices are up-to-date:



Then make sure both devices are in close proximity with the following settings:

  • AirPlane turned off
  • WiFi turned on
  • Bluetooth turned on


Click ▶︎ Connect/Pair your Watch for detailed instructions.
