One of the most exciting pieces of technology that has come out of Apple is the Apple Watch. Wearable tech was not going great guns with some lackluster outings from the Android camp. However, when Apple launched its smartwatch, the whole game was an absolute domination.
Today, Apple Watch enjoys Lion’s share of users and even popularity. The best part is that Apple has been hard at work on its Apple Watch lineup, with a new model releasing every year and huge improvements to the WatchOS platform keeping older models right up there in the race.
What we love about the Apple Watch is the ridiculously simple setup procedure. Apple has kept things very very simple, so much so that even a newcomer to tech can get his/her Apple watch paired and ready in no time. Also, no matter what version you choose (WiFi or WiFi+Cellular), the procedure remains the same.
In this tutorial, we will show you how to pair an Apple Watch with an iPhone.
