I bought a new watch SE, but could not pair it no matter if I select setup new watch or existing one.
I had a watch 7, but I returned last year. When pairing new watch SE, it keeps saying I still have it. But I log into my iCloud account, I could not find.
Exactly what iPhone model do you own? To pair a brand new Apple Watch SE which came preloaded with WatchOS 9, you MUST own an iPhone updated to at least iOS 16. If you don't own an iPhone which is at iOS 16 or is not capable of being updated to iOS 16, your watch will not pair with it.
Thanks! You’re right. After updated to iOS 16, everything is fine now.
Still not pair. Should I bring it to the Apple store?
Glad you got it working. Enjoy your new Apple Watch!
iPhone 13 pro max
i just updated it.
Now, try to pair the watch.
I wish they would change that for the users who have an older iPhone with iOS 15 but want a new apple watch with watchOS 9
Well, I can't comment on that. Any watch running WatchOS 9 MUST be paired to an iPhone running iOS 16.x.x.
I would do that.
Can not pair my new watch SE
