Apple is upgrading its smartwatch each year with every new feature that appears, mainly focusing on health and fitness. The Cupertino giant is always doubling its effort to bring wearable technology to its highest level.

In case you want to sell it or give it to someone else, you will first need to reset the Apple Watch. Regardless of the model, if it is Series 4, 5, or later, here's how you can factory reset your Apple smartwatch.

How to Reset Your Apple Watch Using Your iPhone

According to a report from Pink Villa, two ways can help you reset your wearable device. 

For those who have about resetting, it is alternatively called a "factory reset," wherein all the available files and settings will be reverted to default. This means that all the installed applications and your set password will be deleted after this process.

First, we will tackle how you can do that using your iPhone gadget. To start, here are the steps that you need to follow.

  1. Pair Your Apple Watch with your iPhone.
  2. After successfully pairing the two devices, search for the Apple Watch app on your iPhone and access it. 
  3. Then, head to the General option.
  4. Look for the Reset option on it. Click it
  5. After that, proceed to the next screen, where you can choose an option saying "Erase Apple Watch content and settings."
  6. Confirm it.
  7. For cellular Apple Watch users, you have the freedom to cancel or keep your plan. For the former choice, you can call your carrier for more details.

Best Apple Watch Health Apps 2021

Tech Times reported last month that the top three health applications in Cupertino's wearable gadget include tempo, moodistory, and time to walk.

The first one allows you to collect information about your walking/running progress thanks to its "Run and Walk fitness log."  

The second one detects the current mental state of the user while wearing the Watch. Through this tracker, you could determine the pattern in your moods as well as the changes that take place over time.

The last health app in Apple Watch introduces some monologues from public figures such as Dolly Parton and NBA cager Draymond Green. 

Elsewhere, a Brazilian actor who bought Apple Watch Series 6 online received a stone instead of the actual product. According to the report from 9to5Mac, Lo Bianco waited for 12 ways and paid $530 for the 2020 model of the smart wearable.

In September, Tech Times wrote that the Apple Watch Series 7 would retain the same chip from its predecessor.
