Apple Watch backs up on its own accord with no effort or steps involved on your part. That means if you ever get a new Apple Watch, or had to unpair and restore yours due to a software problem, you can easily recover all your settings and installed apps in a snap!</p> <!--break--> <p>It's worth noting that as far as we know, a backup of your Apple Watch is only created when you
unpair a Watch. That means if you've never unpaired your Apple Watch or restored it, you may not have a backup to restore from. We are assuming incremental automatic backups, like iCloud does with our iPhones and iPads, will make their way to the Watch. But for now, you'll have to have unpair your old Watch at some point in order for a backup to have happened. If anyone has experienced anything different, please be sure to let us know!</p> <h2>How to restore Apple Watch from a previous backup</h2> <ol><li>Make sure your Apple Watch is turned on. </li> <li>Launch the <strong>Apple Watch app</strong> on your iPhone. </li> <li>Tap on <strong>Start Pairing</strong>. </li> <li>Frame your Apple Watch's screen in the <strong>yellow box</strong> to pair it.
