How to transfer Apple Watch to new iPhone, pairing all previous data

[@CharlieBoo-kl4ue]

Really helpful. I’ve been trying to pair my Apple Watch Series 3 with my new iPhone since I got it. I found this video and I did it straight away, it was very well explained.

[@saulfmoran]

Very helpful. Not sure why Apple does not make this more straightforward when switching to a new iPhone.

[@andrewhicks982]

Because they want you to buy new things

Brought a new IPhone 14 plus. Had to pair two series 7 watches. Your video saved me a trip to the Apple Store! Bravo!

Very useful and helpful. Wondering if pairing to a iPhone 15 Pro Max will work the same way. Thanks.

What if you are setting up the new iPhone as new and not from backup but still want to transfer Apple Watch from old to new phone? Is there a way to do that?

[@chakajon]

This! How do we do this?

[@WybremGaming]

This is an quite awful experience. everything went smooth but this is just unnecessary complicated.

[@JuanEduardo12]

hey and If I want to can I set back the watch to my before phone, just like it was before?

[@max_st1712]

I did it a few minutes ago, can someone tell me if it is normal to have not have any clock symbol?

[@beccar2385]

thank you andrew

[@bradley7506]

Do I lose all my credit cards for Apple Pay on my watch after I move the watch to the new iPhone?

[@alibabuche]

Thank You so much!

[@luis.palomo]

I followed these steps byt the only availbe backups are from over a year ago. this SUCKS

[@emanguli4945]

Thank you very much

[@bigrunts9768]

I tried setting up as an existing Apple watch after disconnecting from other iPhone and it didn’t want to pair. iOS 17.5.1

[@april0551]

Not sure if i did it correctly think i lost my activity achievements :(

[@thijsvanheijningen8002]

I didn’t have to do any of this when upgrading my Apple Watch Ultra from my iPhone 12 Pro Max to my iPhone 15 Pro. After my now phone updated from backup, I was prompted on the phone asking if I wanted to transfer the watch to the new phone and it did everything for me. For some reason, it won’t do the same for my wife’s watch, which is why I’m here. There is apparently a new feature built in, but I can’t reproduce it on my wife’s equipment.

[@megapet777]

yep it asked from me too but I guess it didnt work. so I got to reset the watch then

[@maciecandy4254]

Even after I reset it it still says paired with old iphone

[@derafred_21]

tks!

[@tracytaylorewyking6093]

How to charge battery faster?

[@EngMajed-f5f]

Bad reset

[@adammaynard9262]

Unhelpful. this just reset my watch, and now i have to go through the process of setting it back up again. There were no backups available. There should have been a step to mention that a backup is needed.

[@JChan-ru2hf]

He says that about 1 minute into the video

[@the_mariocrafter]

You restore it from Watch settings on iPhone then unpair it

[@iAmir95]

it will erase data !

[@chon9527]

Did you find a video that will transfer data to new phone? I'm mainly concern with the fitness data and achievements

[@victorgzz87]

how is this helpful? 🤨
