I was actually wondering if I should RESET my Apple Watch 4 before transferring everything over to the Watch Ultra. According to this video, I should UPAIR my Apple Watch 4... then RESET and ERASE all data and settings from the Watch 4... then activate the new Watch Ultra, right? Glad I found this how-to-video
Mine did factory reset on its own after i unpaired it went into settings saw he had my apple id still and it started to reset on its own and then after. Boot up said to pair with a iphone is that good for selling now?
Great video. Question is there a video when you upgrade to a new Apple Watch and trade in your old Apple Watch both having cell service? I want to make sure the cell plan transfer over properly
I have same thing. I thought in order to erase on watch you have to unpair. But when you unpair you can’t get back into watch without having it paired to a phone..:
is it harmful for the watch to unpair (and consequently have a full format of the flash memory) multiple times? can this damage its flash memory or battery if done too many times?
This doesn't answer the one question that most people are probably looking for; Does unpairing erase all of your data? There isn't a definitive, clear-cut answer anywhere, which is incredibly irritating. I plan to sell one tomorrow, and I'm worried my data is still on the watch.
Same problem I'm finding here. They keep phrasing it like it's a separate process, but then as though it magically resolves itself with a simple unpairing. So vague
Hey I unpair my Apple Watch series 6 using my phone and it did, but when I check my iCloud the watch is still there. I thought once unpair it suppose to take you off the iCloud also. Do I have to do it manually after I unpair the watch?
I need to re add my watch back to my carrier and it won’t do it how do I fix that? Any ideas I had to remove the watch for there software to update and then re add it back to my service but it won’t work!
Once you unpair an apple watch, you can't get into general settings because the watch has to be paired with a IPhone before the watch allows you to see any settings.
I came here to say the same thing. Maybe you could do this in an older iOS version? Unless, you can still access the main watch screens until you REMOVE the watch from “your devices” with the Find My app. I already unpaired and Removed, so I can’t get to the watch’s general settings screen. So maybe this is why.
I unpaired it on my phone, but the watch just went back to factory settings, I didn’t have to do the extra step of erasing data on watch. Well at least it’s not letting me
After you've unpaired on iPhone, the watch become factory reset, so one cannot access 'Settings>General>Reset' unless I re-pair watch again. Or am I missing something?
I have tried this but the account used initially to set up the watch still appears after the unpair process as well as remove from from device. I unpaired the watch again and the account still appeared. Not the first time I've had this. Also happened with a previous watch I sold. Looked like I wanted to scam buyer as account was still on the watch
I made the mistake and removed my Apple Watch that I want to give to family member from my phone and reset the settings on the watch 😩 before checking on you tube ! Now what ???
Mine did factory reset on its own after i unpaired it went into settings saw he had my apple id still and it started to reset on its own and then after. Boot up said to pair with a iphone is that good for selling now?

What if I did the reset first .. what should I do in that situation???
When you unpair an Apple Watch does it factory reset?
Just what I was looking for. Clear and to the point. Thanks
What if you no longer have the phone that the watch was paired with?
Same doubt

Great video. I almost did it wrong. Getting ready to sell my Apple Watch. Thanks for the video! Gave you a thumbs up!
Great video. Question is there a video when you upgrade to a new Apple Watch and trade in your old Apple Watch both having cell service? I want to make sure the cell plan transfer over properly
Thank you. It was very nice to be able to understand what you were saying and for clearly explaining the process!
will unpairing remove the activation lock?
I think
Ok so I unpair it, does that mean it’s erased too because it’s telling me to pair again
I have same thing. I thought in order to erase on watch you have to unpair. But when you unpair you can’t get back into watch without having it paired to a phone..:
Thanks for the detailed process. I don't know about family setup. I'll have to look for that...
What if everything was transferred to a new apple watch. Is there anything further that needs to be done once it’s unpaired?
Thank you! This was very helpful! My friend gave me an iWatch and I was going to reset it, but am very glad I saw this first.
Great and to the point, thank you so much, I was so lost!
Easy breezy instructions, thanks!
is it harmful for the watch to unpair (and consequently have a full format of the flash memory) multiple times? can this damage its flash memory or battery if done too many times?

I need to re add my watch back to my carrier and it won’t do it how do I fix that? Any ideas I had to remove the watch for there software to update and then re add it back to my service but it won’t work!
Once you unpair an apple watch, you can't get into general settings because the watch has to be paired with a IPhone before the watch allows you to see any settings.
So does that mean everything is already erase?

Unless, you can still access the main watch screens until you REMOVE the watch from “your devices” with the Find My app. I already unpaired and Removed, so I can’t get to the watch’s general settings screen. So maybe this is why.
you only need to UNPAIR the watch. that's it!
@@DrCmomentsthanks buddy
I unpaired it on my phone, but the watch just went back to factory settings, I didn’t have to do the extra step of erasing data on watch. Well at least it’s not letting me
After unpaired how can I go to settings on the apple watch
Contact *kriphack* on Instagram for more details... He fixed mine
Great, clear and concise video, thank you! :)
I bought a watch with info still on it and if I needed to unpair it with the seller who is in a different state could it still work?
When unpairing the watch, will it delete all data from the watch?
Great video!
Great video. Great instructions and explanations
After you've unpaired on iPhone, the watch become factory reset, so one cannot access 'Settings>General>Reset' unless I re-pair watch again. Or am I missing something?

Thank you for the video. I'm selling my apple watch tomorrow.
You can’t erase content after you have unpaired.
What if i don't have my iphone anymore?
I have tried this but the account used initially to set up the watch still appears after the unpair process as well as remove from from device. I unpaired the watch again and the account still appeared. Not the first time I've had this. Also happened with a previous watch I sold.
