In this article, we will guide you through the process step by step.
Apple ID is a crucial part of the iWatch experience, as it allows you to sync your data, access Apple Pay, and much more. However, there are times when you may need to remove it without the password. Here’s how you can do it:
1. Find Your iWatch’s IMEI Number
To start the process, you need to find your iWatch’s International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number. This unique identifier can be found on the back of the iWatch or in the “My Watch” app on your iPhone.
2. Contact Apple Support
Once you have the IMEI number, contact Apple Support. Explain the situation and request assistance in removing your Apple ID from the iWatch. Be prepared to provide the IMEI number and any other information they may require.
3. Use “Find My iPhone”
If you have access to your iCloud account, you can use the “Find My iPhone” feature to remove your Apple ID. Follow these steps:
– Go to iCloud.com on a web browser.
– Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
– Select “Find My iPhone.”
– Choose your iWatch from the list of devices.
– Click on “Remove from Account.”
4. Factory Reset the iWatch
If you’re unable to contact Apple Support or use “Find My iPhone,” you can perform a factory reset on your iWatch. This will erase all data and settings, including your Apple ID. Here’s how to do it:
– Press and hold the side button and Digital Crown until the “Slide to Power Off” slider appears.
– Drag the slider to turn off your iWatch.
– Press and hold the side button until the Apple logo appears.

5. Contact a Professional
If all else fails, you may need to seek the help of a professional who can reset your iWatch and remove your Apple ID without a password. This is typically the last resort and may come with a cost.
In conclusion, removing your Apple ID from an iWatch without a password is possible, but it may require some patience and persistence.
