How to Set up and Pair Apple Watch with Your iPhone?

Before you set up Apple Watch and pair it with your iPhone, here is some preparation works need to be done:

- First of all, you have to consider the OS of your iPhone. To pair your Apple Watch with iPhone, you should be sure the iOS 8.2 or a later version has been installed on your iPhone device. This is mainly because the Apple Watch app is only can be operated in the device with the system of iOS 8.2 or later.

- Please be sure the Wi-Fi network and Bluetooth are opened in your device.

- Press and hold the side button of your Apple Watch for seconds until the Apple logo appears. Then, you can select the language for using the device.

- The whole pairing process could be a little bit time-consuming, so please make sure both of your Apple Watch and iPhone are fully charged before you start the process.

Note: Because the Apple Watch app can only be launched on the system of iOS 8.2 or later, so the compatible iPhones are iPhone 5, iPhone 5C/5S, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus at present.

Now, you can start the pairing process officially as follows:

1. Run Apple Watch app on your iPhone, and hit "Start Pairing" button to begin the connection procedure.

2. Aim the camera of your iPhone at the Apple Watch screen. You just act what the app requests and it will automatically pair the Apple Watch with your iPhone. When your Apple Watch is paired successfully, an animated dot cloud will turn into an attractive graphic to demonstrate that you have succeeded. If the pairing process fails, you can pair it manually as well.

3. Now, you will be instructed to accept the terms and conditions, diagnostics, and approve your gadget through iCloud, which are not options, but mandatory. You will also be asked to create a password, which is typically a four digit number or more than that in length.

4. If you would like to unlock your watch by iPhone, you have to enter the password and wait for synchronization. The watch will go through all your apps and it will load the ones, which are watch-set. A gradually filling progress will circle around the Apple symbol will count off your progress, which will take more than 10 minutes. Now, leave your iPhone and plugged in, together with the watch, and after 10 minutes the pairing process will be completed.
