I did all the steps 5 times. On the 5th time I went to bed and left my Apple Watch on charge overnight. The next morning I looked at it and it had gotten out of the boot loop and was showing full charge on the normal screen. I then re-paired it to my phone (this was how this issue began in the first place trying to un-pair / re-pair to fix a storage issue glitch) and it’s working perfectly again. Saved me the trip and $$ at Apple! Thank you
Did all five steps. Freezer method: left in there and forgot overnight, next morning it reboot and now functioning perfectly, not sure why it worked but thank you. Apple Genius Bar couldn’t do a thing except telling me to pay $200 for a new one. The problem with my watch arose when I swam in the Black Sea (low salt environment) for 25 minutes. No diving just surface swim
Mine hasn’t come back to life. But I am not giving up after reading through the comments. More than anything THANK YOU for being the ONLY person to suggest steps beyond the hard reset! No matter what my outcome is I appreciate the extra tips.
*worked!* Mine was on a boot loop for a week! Couldn’t figure anything out. Came across this video. It took me 4 FULL processes and the freezer finally got it! Have faith keep trying!
I spend hours watching videos and this one finally suggested something that worked. Never would have thought to freeze my watch!!! It worked. Thank you!!!!🙏🏽
These steps actually work!!!! I have thrown my series 3 away for 3 months and have bought series 7. I came across this video and have followed the steps and the watch is perfectly working. Thanks man!
To the guy who made this… I felt like I was going to cry and I did because I work so hard for my Apple Watch Series 6 44 screen and I had thought I had lost it. I search so many videos and non work except yours. When I had done the steps and it didn’t work I went to bed and woke up hopeless then I did the steps again and when I was spamming it and then I charge it I saw the main screen. So I give you a big internet hug and say to you have a good day.
Thank you so much for this video. It was my second attempt at the "15 minute deep freeze" that fixed my boot loop! Thank you! I had spent ages on trying to fis the problem and this was the only useful video I found out there!
i didn't have my series 7 on for the past three weeks ( just wasn't feeling like myself ) decided to clean up and look better again to my dismay after it being dead all that time i let it charge for an hour nothing except a dead green bolt. Not sure which of these steps worked as i made it to the tapping but it finally started to charge , thanks video man! hopefully it's back up to speed!
All the way from NIGERIA, thanks a lot man your methods worked fine for me it’s worth thanking you for your good content.. tried the pressing and also the freezing method then I plugged it to the charger and it came up as if nothing happened THANKS!
I had looked at two other videos before this one and they didn’t work. This video didn’t work work until my fifth attempt. My watch actually started up again during the “press press press” down part. Felt like I was giving my watch a Swedish message. Good luck with your watches. I learned my lesson about playing in the sand while having my watch on.
This is the best video ever!!! I’ve was losing hope and try everything. Even went to Apple store and they didn’t have a solution. Just buy another one. I saw this video today. And after the second loop of doing everything and finally get back to life. Thanks you sir and the fridge aswell. ❤🎉🎉
Boils my p*ss how they say no solution and they can’t repair/replace when it’s literally a common fault and no fault of our own 😡 there isn’t a mark on my watch but it’s out of the warranty and stuck with this now
I want to thank you for your video at work. I’ve been trying to figure it out for the longest and I said hey let me just check out RUclips and you came up and I want to thank you for your awesome advice that worked.
OMG!! I watched two videos before yours, and they were garbage! I had to repeat three times, and it worked! I think it was the freezer! You saved me tons of money and tears! Thank you!
Tapping worked for me. THANK YOU. It seemed daft at the timebut half way through tapping the front the logo went much whiter and so I stopped tapping and it then booted all the way. AWESOME, would never have thought to do that.
The tap method worked for me. I lasted 3 days without my apple watch because after i went for a swim with it and let the battery die, i came home and tried to charge it but it just started blinking on the logo and didnt turned on. I tried the to force it and didnt work, but after i did the tap method it just went on. Im planning on going to apple store just to ask some questions about it. Thank you very much, after more than 10 videos and more than 1 day reading about it i couldnt find something that worked until this video. Thaks man, i really appreciate your help!
Im here to state, that it does seem to work. I just kept doing some of this throughout the day, just in case it worked. And then suddenly it did. I was just kind of rocking it back and forth at the moment when I saw the apple logo stick for more than the 3 seconds it was doing before. It is not scientific enough to say what worked, but maybe movement or temperature made something inside the watch trigger, I was alternating between pressing the side button and both buttons. I would say, just keep going, and be positive.
I did all the steps, left the watch on the charger for about 15 minutes, and when I returned, the watch was on and functioning! Thank you so much for offering up suggestions other than the forced reset.
Thank you so much for this. My AW7 have been stuck on the flashing apple logo for 1.5 week. Tried all of these steps 10-15 times. Left it in the freezer between 15 min and several hours. I believe it was the side button that was a bit stuck on one side. Tried several times with alcohol, water and pressing on it. First it gut un-stuck on one side. But now after pressing on the other side for 100 times and really hard it all of sudden started to work again. Insane but so happy!
PLEASE READ!! Advice to everyone having any issues with their Apple Watch. I experienced a similar problem with my stainless steel series 7, my warranty expired a week before this problem so I was very upset and I don’t have the Apple care coverage. My watched died and it wouldn’t not charge it would just show the red mark with the time. I tried to charge it for a entire day and nothing. I knew it wasn’t the charger because my husband’s watch was charging perfectly it was just mine that was not charging.I found this video y decided to try before going to the Apple Store and what happened was super weird. I tried all these steps 3 times I was willing to try 5 times until my husband told me that’s not going to work let’s just take it to the Apple store and see what happens, I took my watch out of the freezer for the 3rd time and I let it sit for a few minutes I tried to charge before going to the store hoping something would happen but no, so we headed to the store and after explaining to the tech she said ok let’s try to charge but if it doesn’t unfortunately the cost to sent to Apple is $390 I was so sad because I’m still paying on it and this watch costed me almost $900 :( so we put it on their charger and OMG was I about to die when the green logo shows as it was starting to charge!! After like 10 minutes of sitting their the Apple logo showed up and it was charging and was working perfectly SO IDK but I’m sure these steps helped out to get my watch back because I came back home and used my same charger and it was working. THANK U 🙏
I tried nearly everything. After like 100x i did this and it worked, maybe for someone else too: Apple Watch 3: Push both buttons untill reboot (Apple Logo reappear) then click again on the down button (not the crown) and simultaneously touch the screen a few times. Good Luck
Can't believe this actually worked!! Not sure which step, probably a combo of all of them. But lo and behold, it booted up normally after 15 minutes in the freezer! Thank you so much! Apple Watch Series 8 fyi.
The first time I saw you clip. I am laughing that I am massaging my watch but it works. My watch comes back from sinking in the swimming pool. Thanks a lot.
The freezer step on the 2nd try got me out of the boot loop but stuck in the emergency call screen. After 4 days of repeating the process, my watch snapped out of it and seems to be working normally again! Thank you for the great advice.
The freezer thing worked I swear to God, you are a Apple Watch and money saver Thank you so much bro, you were the only person that has said to put it in the freezer and that’s what worked thanks
Thanks youu so much!!!! It worked i used the freeze trick to get out from bootloop . Actually i want to reset my watch and suddenly it restarted itself and bootlooping and after watching this video i put my watch in the freezer and wait 20 minute after that i restarted it again using force restart and i click the second button (under crown button) few times and it just get out the loop
Put it in the freezer and forgot about it..90 minutes later I pulled it out and it booted to the low charge screen..charged it and now it’s working perfectly..who’d ever have thought this would work…
My SE 1st gen got like this after the last update. I tried everything. I messed with it for 5 days continuously. I can't thank you enough. The second deep freeze worked for me. Originally, I tried everything but did not try freezing it. If it happens again and freezing it doesn't work, I might just deep fry it /s Thank you!!
Thanks a whole lot you were right the button was stuck and making watch loop in reset mode, I tried your method of tapping it and then went for a ball of cotton and alcohol and sure enough the watch came on and out of loop mode, thanks a bunch, I thought my watch was now useless
My Series 3 took a dump right after a software upgrade. I tried all of your methods. I went through them 6 times, just to be sure. It was still cycling 8sec with the logo and 2.75 sec off. Rinse wash repeat. The Hard reset would shut it down. The lower button would turn it on. But the rest was a no-go. 😥
For ANYONE who is having these issues (including the red exclamation mark) you have GOT GOT GOT GOT GOT GOT to be patient when trying to fix it. My apple watch had a black screen (nothing) for DAYS. Then, it went to having a black screen to having a black screen with exclamation point on it a few times per day. THEN, it went from that to an exclamation point screen on 24/7. Thats when I started doing the rebooting process. I had to reboot about 10 times on the charger and each time the apple logo would stay on longer and longer between reboots. Finally, I took it off and put the watch on my wrist and rebooted (hoping having skin contact would help) and it booted up after 2 tries. This whole process took me about 2.5 - 3 weeks to get it working. So happy it did because I was JUST about to bite the bullet and buy a new apple watch. If you want piece of mind moving forward, buy Apple Care+ so you just know you're covered no matter what.
What a piece of crap. Mine has been stuck with the apple gogo for 10 days. Not trama, nothing. So far no one has a cure to do a true force reboot. all attempts have failed including his video. The watch is in mint condition. Luckily my apple 7 phone is still ticking.
The first 6 options didn’t work. 20 mins in the freezer while we ate dinner, pulled it out and it fired right up. Battery had about 95% juice on it and it seems to be fine. I went to the Apple store today and they wanted me to wait for 3.5 hours for an appt. They called me back later and told me I need to mail it in for repair and it was gonna be $328. Declined, I would of been better off just getting a new one. Thanks for your video.
Legend!!!! Thought my watch was totally jacked. Went swimming with it and touch screen stopped working. Took to apple store and they ran diagnostics and couldn’t find anything wrong. They wanted to charge me $299 USD flat rate to fix it. Brutal. Later today it was also stuck in a boot loop so found this video and tried it.Tried the methods twice, all except the freezer. Insanely it worked!! It’s out of the boot loop AND the touch screen is functional again. Absolutely astounded. Thanks for the great video!
Thank you for this. I tried all the steps. At first my boot loop was not broken. But I read the positive comments and tried again the second day. I got to the tapping stage and I saw a flash that I had not seen before. I went to the next stage and the loop was broken. Possible caus: My watch went into a loop when I took it into hot spring water. For the record, I unpaired the watch from my phone and when my watch came back it had all the original information but was not connected to my iPhone. I then erased the data and then paired the phone and watch. Thanks again
Do not put your watch on freezer. I had a boot loop middle update and tried almost every steps but anything worked… i was hopeless and after buying a new one that is on the way. I did the last method that i was skeptical and i had reasons to because i do repair other eletronics and we know is not a good thing. After repeating the process of putting it on freezer for the last time i sat it on charger when working on computer i saw i was blinking the logo in red, sometimes green and it booted but always doing this and going of when i used any watch face that had some colors specialy gray. I just put it on wrist and the power on button wast working but it wouldnt bother me that much cause i use it mostly for exercise and i could live with it antil the new one arrives. A day after it started getting better less blinking and color shifting, second they i got worse and worse after sat it on the charger the screen never came back but the watch still functioning. Today i decided to disasembling it and the thing i was fearing is what happened. The concetors of the screen specially the one that brink image was covered on some parts with rust green. I suspect the process of freezing created this humidity that made this rusting and made the watch screen stop functioning . Conclusion i just cleaned the conector with isopropyl alcohol and i will place it and the i will tell you if it worked, same for the power button it got rust on conector thats why it stopped as well. Conclusion, i dont know if i was the freezer method that got i out of boot loop but i dont recomend. May be if i waited a little bit it would got out of it and worked again without loosing the screen and speending more money on a new one. I repeat do not put it on freezer you would and up with more problems
You are awesome bro slapping the apple watch worked for me 😂 thank god I found ur video otherwise whole internet was all about hard reset which i tried ton nos of times

The 4th abuse method worked on my watch. It is now charging again. I pressed as hard as I could on the screen and back and it freaking worked. Thx!!!
The tap method has worked for me on multiple occasions
For me worked just rapidly touching side button. Thank you for help.

Im here to state, that it does seem to work. I just kept doing some of this throughout the day, just in case it worked. And then suddenly it did. I was just kind of rocking it back and forth at the moment when I saw the apple logo stick for more than the 3 seconds it was doing before. It is not scientific enough to say what worked, but maybe movement or temperature made something inside the watch trigger, I was alternating between pressing the side button and both buttons. I would say, just keep going, and be positive.

What exactly does the freezer do? Believe it or not, that is the only thing that got this thing stabilized and back to normal... for now anyway...

I got to the tapping stage and I saw a flash that I had not seen before. I went to the next stage and the loop was broken. Possible caus: My watch went into a loop when I took it into hot spring water. For the record, I unpaired the watch from my phone and when my watch came back it had all the original information but was not connected to my iPhone. I then erased the data and then paired the phone and watch. Thanks again
Still not working for me, any other tips 😭
Do not put your watch on freezer. I had a boot loop middle update and tried almost every steps but anything worked… i was hopeless and after buying a new one that is on the way. I did the last method that i was skeptical and i had reasons to because i do repair other eletronics and we know is not a good thing. After repeating the process of putting it on freezer for the last time i sat it on charger when working on computer i saw i was blinking the logo in red, sometimes green and it booted but always doing this and going of when i used any watch face that had some colors specialy gray. I just put it on wrist and the power on button wast working but it wouldnt bother me that much cause i use it mostly for exercise and i could live with it antil the new one arrives. A day after it started getting better less blinking and color shifting, second they i got worse and worse after sat it on the charger the screen never came back but the watch still functioning. Today i decided to disasembling it and the thing i was fearing is what happened. The concetors of the screen specially the one that brink image was covered on some parts with rust green. I suspect the process of freezing created this humidity that made this rusting and made the watch screen stop functioning . Conclusion i just cleaned the conector with isopropyl alcohol and i will place it and the i will tell you if it worked, same for the power button it got rust on conector thats why it stopped as well. Conclusion, i dont know if i was the freezer method that got i out of boot loop but i dont recomend. May be if i waited a little bit it would got out of it and worked again without loosing the screen and speending more money on a new one.
I repeat do not put it on freezer you would and up with more problems
