Pairing an Apple Watch?:


Try the Following:


First, Try Updating Both Devices First:

Perhaps there are some bugs that need to be fixed. To fix these, update both.


Then... Attempt this Once More:

  1. Pair them: Set up and pair Apple Watch with iPhone - Apple Support
  2. Form There: If your Apple Watch isn't Connected or Paired with your iPhone - Apple Support
