Will iPhone 14 pair with a Series 1 watch?

Hi Casey_912,

Great question.

Yes. Apple Watch Series 1 is compatible with iPhone 14 running iOS 16.2. See the following steps to pair your devices: Set up and pair Apple Watch with iPhone

"Set up and pair Apple Watch with iPhone

To use your Apple Watch Series 1 or later with watchOS 6.2, you need to pair your Apple Watch with an iPhone 6s or later with iOS 13 or later. Setup assistants on your iPhone and Apple Watch work together to help you pair and set up your Apple Watch.

WARNING: To avoid injury, read Important safety information for Apple Watch before using your Apple Watch.

Turn on, pair, and set up your Apple Watch

1. Put your Apple Watch on your wrist. Adjust the band so your Apple Watch fits closely but comfortably on your wrist.
2. For information about resizing or changing the band on your Apple Watch, see Remove, change, and fasten Apple Watch bands.
3. To turn on your Apple Watch, press and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo.
4. Bring your iPhone near your Apple Watch, wait for the Apple Watch pairing screen to appear on your iPhone, then tap Continue.
5. Or open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone, then tap Pair New Watch.
6. 
7. When prompted, position your iPhone so that your Apple Watch appears in the viewfinder in the Apple Watch app. This pairs the two devices.
8. Tap Set Up Apple Watch. Follow the instructions on your iPhone and Apple Watch to finish setup.

Tip: If you have difficulty seeing your Apple Watch or iPhone, VoiceOver or Zoom can help—even during setup. See Set up Apple Watch using VoiceOver or Use Zoom on Apple Watch.

While it’s pairing with your iPhone, your Apple Watch provides tips on how to interact with it. Tap Display, Digital Crown, and Side Button to learn more.

You can activate cellular service on your Apple Watch with cellular during setup. If you don’t wish to, you can activate it later in the Apple Watch app on your iPhone. See Use Apple Watch with a cellular network.

Your iPhone and Apple Watch must use the same cellular carrier. Cellular service not available in all regions.

Trouble pairing?

• If you see a watch face when you’re trying to pair: Your Apple Watch is already paired to an iPhone. You need to first erase all Apple Watch content and reset settings.
• If the camera doesn’t start the pairing process: Tap Pair Apple Watch Manually at the bottom of the iPhone screen, and follow the onscreen instructions.

Cheers.
