Apple Watch Won't Turn On after Being Dead!

A common issue many Apple Watch users face including me - your Apple Watch won't turn on after being dead. But don't worry, you don't need to buy a new watch just yet. I'll guide you through the steps to fix this problem.
If your Apple Watch is showing the red or green snake of death, or it's completely dead, it might not be as bad as you think. However, if your watch has physical damage, this video may not be helpful for you.
The primary reason an Apple Watch won't turn on after being dead is that it needs a high-power charge to revive it. Low-power chargers, like those with laptops or power banks, simply won't do the trick.
To get your Apple Watch up and running again, follow these steps:
1. Get a high-power charger: You'll need at least a 20W fast charger to give your watch the boost it needs. This will provide the necessary power to kickstart your watch's charging process.
2. Charge your watch: Connect your Apple Watch to the 20W fast charger and wait for it to charge. Keep an eye on the charging progress - once it reaches about 10%, you can switch back to your normal charger if you'd like.
3. Maintain battery health: To prevent this issue from happening again, make sure to charge your Apple Watch regularly. This helps maintain the battery's health and ensures you won't find yourself with a dead watch in the future.

If I’ve helped you, could you support me with a $2 donation? Thanks a ton! 🙏- ko-fi.com/techempty

Turns out even though I had the fast charger and OEM cable, I had it plugged into a small power strip which was apparently not completely supplying the maximum power needed to “kickstart” the charge (the apple fast charger is rated for 20W and this Anker power strip I use allows for 12W). I plugged my watch + charger directly into the wall outlet and it’s charging now. Thank you for the clear explanation and reassurance that helped me with solving the problem. This is the first time I’ve ever really let the battery drain on my watch so I was panicking!! Thank you!

I'm glad to hear that the issue has been resolved by plugging your watch and charger directly into the wall outlet, bypassing the power strip's limitations. It's perfectly normal to feel concerned when encountering such situations for the first time. I'm pleased that my clear explanation and reassurance helped you in solving the problem.

Mine arrived like this, and apple won’t accept any responsibility

[@noahsand6177]

I don’t understand. My Apple Watch charger is a USB A cord, not a USB C cord?

[@TechEmpty]

That’s works too

[@zenatuz]

I bought a used apple watch and it had a similar icon, without the long cable but with a red charging icon. I plugged it into the macbook charger and it came back to life, thanks for helping me with this very useful information.
