The Apple Watch is a connected watch that offers many features, including notification of calls, messages and other applications, physical activity tracking and contactless payment with Apple Pay. To make full use of your Apple Watch, you need to connect it to an iPhone. This guide will help you connect your Watch to your iPhone so you can enjoy all the benefits of the Apple ecosystem.
Prepare iPhone and Apple Watch
- Make sure your iPhone is up to date. To do this, go to Settings > General > Software Update. If the iPhone suggests an update, download and install it.
- Activate Bluetooth on the iPhone and make sure you’re connected to a Wi-Fi or cellular network.
- Wear your Apple Watch on your wrist and turn it on with a long press on the side button. If it doesn’t light up, charge it.
How to pair your Apple Watch with your iPhone
Hold your Apple Watch close to your iPhone and wait for the notification to appear.
