My watch is paired to my iPhone but does not appear in the Find My app. I found the directions on Apple.com, but the first step is to open settings on my watch and tap my name, but my name does not appear. What should I do to get my watch to show up on Find My?

If your name does not appear on page 1 of settings
then your phone is not signed into your Apple account. You can sign in on that page.
After iphone is signed in you may have to erase or unpair the watch then set up again.
You can also sign into https://icloud.com/find
and find your devices there.
I ran into this same issue and couldn’t find my “name at the top” but I realized that it was a sign into Apple ID problem. I had to go to the watch app then to General then to Apple ID and sign in. Fixed the problem immediately
Hi Julie,
I was having this issue and figured out that I was not signed in with my Apple ID on my watch. On your watch, go to settings > general > Apple ID and sign in. Hopefully they fixes your issue
Going into the watch app on my phone, into General and then Apple ID showed I wasn't signed in to find my om my watch, I signed in using my apple id and it worked perfectly. Thanks for this advice.
