Apple Watch passcode not working

My Apple Watch passcode will not register correctly. I did the reset this morning, but my problem still exists. The numbers will not register and just flash when I try to put in my code.

Apple Watch Series 6, watchOS 9

Hello Moorejoyful,


If you reset your Apple Watch passcode and it's still not working, I'd recommend doing a factory reset. Luckily nothing is really stored on Apple Watch (besides app location and a few preferences). Apple Watch mainly gets everything from iPhone so if you're willing, I'd follow this support page and try again - Unpair and erase your Apple Watch - Apple Support!


I hope this helps!
