Removing the strap from an Apple Watch Series 9 (or any other Apple Watch model) is straightforward. Follow these steps:

  1. Flip your Apple Watch so the back is facing you.
  2. Look for two small oval-shaped buttons on the back of the Apple Watch, near where the strap connects to the watch body.
  3. Hold the watch firmly and press one of the band release buttons using your finger.
  4. While holding the button, slide the strap sideways out of its slot. It should glide out smoothly. If it doesn’t move, ensure you’re pressing the release button fully.
