Your video is dead on accurate as I couldn’t pair my watch to my ew iPhone 15 Pro. Old phone was wiped and couldn’t be paired. Followed your instructions and it took just over ten minutes start to finish. Excellent video for those of who forgot to unpair from my old phone before trying to add the watch to the new. This video is perfect and explained well.
Wow! Your well done video worked perfectly! I had everything backed up and updated, and had my watch paired with my now ruined old phone until yesterday ,so what you explained worked in only a few minutes! Thank you so very much!!!
Thank you so much for your easy to follow video, my watch is finally paired up. For once I didn't have to go to my kids and say " How can I ? "😜Thanks again!
What if you didn’t have an old phone but you just didn’t have a phone back then so you got a new phone, with that erase everything on the old phone as well? Or just the data on the Apple Watch?
If your apple watch data is backed up on icloud then you will get the data after the reset also. I also got my data after reseting. Because my apple watch data was backed up on icloud.
THANK YOU!!! I gave up on mine last Summer! I just picked it up again today…watched this video and Voila! Thank you so much. Straight forward and clear direction.🙌🏾
Thanks for the video it was very helpful. My software on my old iphone was up to date but I still had to do the 2 hour watch-9 update - my old iphone did not support that level. I had my old iphone and had to unpair the watch from that phone - it ask before doing the reset (during the unpair) if I wanted to retain my cellular plan. I chose that option and I didn't need to set up cellular during the watch install on the new phone. I did restore from an old backup but the backup was 3 years old!!! I didn't realize that apple wasn't backing it up to my old phone. The unpair forces a backup to be stored on the iphone storage. If I had know this, I would have unpaired before I did my last icloud backup on the old phone and that backup would have been placed on the new iphone during the restore of the backup.
That's the thing I forgot my Apple ID to my old one and I don't have access to it and I'm not into it like I can't get into it so I'm stuck. I'm never gonna be able to use it anyway there's no way.
So My mom just got a new phone and the old one is also no longer useable and trying to connect the watch to a new phone, will restarting/deleting everything on the watch also delete everything (pics,contacts) on you’re phone? Or does it just delete the watch data from you’re phone
I came here to tell you that's not an apple watch in the thumbnail, to only realize that's probably why it's not an apple watch in the thumbnail 😅 Great content, as always helpful.
Is there an alternate way to do this without losing information because my phone was disabled but my iCloud backup wasn’t up to date(meaning I lost everything), so I’m trying to see if I can transfer the info on my Apple Watch to my phone.
I called Apple Care a couple times about this. They said there is no way to save the watch data into the new phone. So if you don’t have the old phone, your data is lost. Can someone please explain to me why this is NOT the most STUPID restriction EVER.

Glad it worked out, yeah I thought ours was busted until I went all the way through past the fails
Thanks for your help. I was panicking because I wiped my old phone completely before unpairing my Apple Watch. You're the best!

I need to pair with new phone but I want to keep watch data because it is more current (pics, etc.) than the back-up. How?
Did u figure it out?
I would like to know that too!
Same any luck @kimnecaise8657

Thank you! This was of great help!!!!
You're welcome! 🤝
Wow amazing … I wasted 3 days .. done in 3 min after watching your videos
That's the thing I forgot my Apple ID to my old one and I don't have access to it and I'm not into it like I can't get into it so I'm stuck. I'm never gonna be able to use it anyway there's no way.
So My mom just got a new phone and the old one is also no longer useable and trying to connect the watch to a new phone, will restarting/deleting everything on the watch also delete everything (pics,contacts) on you’re phone? Or does it just delete the watch data from you’re phone
If u reset/erase from the watch settings then it will only affect the watch is what I understand it to be from the video, which makes sense
Yeah it's just watch data.
If i reset the watch without passcode can i connect to the other phone
I came here to tell you that's not an apple watch in the thumbnail, to only realize that's probably why it's not an apple watch in the thumbnail 😅
Great content, as always helpful.
Lol 🤣 Baited. Thx!
Thanks . It works
Good work =)
Why mine can’t
Is there an alternate way to do this without losing information because my phone was disabled but my iCloud backup wasn’t up to date(meaning I lost everything), so I’m trying to see if I can transfer the info on my Apple Watch to my phone.
Did you figure this out?
I am also wondering if you figured this out
I am also wondering if you figured this out
Unfortunately, I didn’t. I had to just follow the way he did in the video.
I called Apple Care a couple times about this. They said there is no way to save the watch data into the new phone. So if you don’t have the old phone, your data is lost. Can someone please explain to me why this is NOT the most STUPID restriction EVER.
What do you do if it stops and says connect to wifi and it’s connected to the WiFi ?
What if you have a cellular version
My activity ring doesn’t show my calories, move and stand activity since i have repaired with my new iphone16
It keeps telling me not connected to internet when I try and update 😊
Mine was saying 20 hours to install
Mine won’t pair at all. So I can’t update it at all. I thought this video was a workaround
Nice
Tech Rescue 🤣
I got a completely knew Apple ID so it won’t let me in what do I do
How about the activation lock ?
Parts only
I was 'thinking' about a new iPhone upgrade but you just convinced me to hold off, sorry Apple....
Hold out as long as possible. =)
It’s asking old password… what to do?
I have iCloud lock that I don’t have my old iCloud info
this didn’t help my apple watch is stuck on a screen with the apple sign and some words
Okay but how do I pair my apple watch with my Samsung??
Unfortunately that feature is not available yet.
You do not need to erase your data.
Then how
This is why I HATE APPLE
