Hello ClarePD,


We understand that you're unable to pair your Apple Watch with your iPhone. To clarify, do you receive an error message when trying to complete the process?


The following steps may be able to assist you:

• If you see a watch face when you’re trying to pair: Your Apple Watch is already paired to an iPhone. You need to first erase all Apple Watch content and reset settings.
• If the camera doesn’t start the pairing process: Tap Pair Apple Watch Manually at the bottom of the iPhone screen, and follow the onscreen instructions.
• If Apple Watch isn’t pairing with iPhone: See the Apple Support article If your Apple Watch isn’t connected or paired with your iPhone.

Take care!
