what if you didt unpair before you erased your watch?

I gave my daughter my apple watch. She didnt use much


I wanted it back


She erased the watch, but didn't UNPAIR first I think


I'm now in iowa (she is in georgia) and I'm trying to set up.


It's erased but I dont think it is unpaired. Can she do that with out the watch, and

how? (to remove the lock)

If you are the ORIGINAL owner, then see the 'Start a support request' section in:

How to remove Activation Lock - Apple Support


Here are two ways to unpair your watch if you no longer have the paired iPhone:

  • See the 'How to erase your Apple Watch if you don't have your iPhone' section of:

Unpair and erase your Apple Watch - Apple Support

  • With a web browser, go to: https://www.iCloud.com and have your daughter sign in with her Apple ID. Open Find My iPhone and select All Devices (at the top). Then click your Apple Watch, select 'Erase Apple Watch', and select Next until the device is erased. Finally click "X" next to remove your Apple Watch.
