To fix this issue, users should toggle Bluetooth on and off on both devices, and make sure that Airplane mode is turned off, and Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are turned on. If this doesn’t work, users should try forcing their Apple Watch and iPhone to reconnect by bringing them together wihin range.

To ensure a successful connection, make sure that both devices are in close proximity and that their Wi-Fi and Bluetooth settings are enabled.
