Follow the Instructions

The app will give you step-by-step instructions for pairing your Apple Watch with your iPhone. These steps include entering a specific code from the watch, allowing notifications from the watch, and more.

Enable iCloud

You’ll need to enable iCloud on both devices to use certain Apple Watch features. This can be done by going into the Settings menu on each device and selecting “iCloud.”

Use QR Code Scanning Technology

You can use QR codes to pair the devices if your iPhone and Apple Watch don’t have Bluetooth capabilities. You’ll need to open up the Apple Watch app on your iPhone and select “Pair Device With QR Code” from the menu. You can scan the code on your watch screen with your phone camera to establish a connection.
