Unpair and Re-Pair Your Apple Watch<b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">After a force restart, if the Apple logo still stays on your Apple Watch, try unpairing it from your iPhone and then pairing it again. Keep both devices close while doing this.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Start by opening the Apple Watch app on your iPhone.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Tap on the My Watch section, then select All Watches from the top.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Find the watch you want to remove and tap the i icon next to it.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Choose Unpair Apple Watch, then confirm by tapping Unpair [your watch\u2019s name].<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If your watch has GPS + Cellular, you can choose whether or not to keep your mobile plan.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Type your Apple ID password when prompted. If you don\u2019t remember it, you\u2019ll have to reset your password.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Tap Unpair again. Your iPhone will create a backup of your watch during this step.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Once done, if this was your only watch, tap Start Pairing. If you have others, tap Add Watch.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Just follow the prompts to complete the setup.
