How Do I Enter the Password on My Apple Watch?

Published in Apple Watch Help 2 mins read

There are several ways to enter your password on your Apple Watch, depending on your watch model and what you are trying to access.

Here are the methods you can use:

  • Scribble:

    • Use your finger to write out the password characters directly on the watch face. The Apple Watch will convert your scribbles into text.
  • Keyboard (Limited Availability):

    • Some newer Apple Watch models support a keyboard for text input. If your watch has this feature and your language is supported, you can use the keyboard to type your password. (Note: This feature is not available in all languages).
  • Tap:

    • Use the tap option in order to enter your password.
  • Using Your iPhone:

    • When prompted to enter a password on your Apple Watch (especially during initial setup or after a restart), your iPhone may display a notification asking if you want to enter the password there. This is often the easiest method. If you choose this option, a keyboard will appear on your iPhone, and you can type the password there. It will then be securely transmitted to your Apple Watch.

If you're having trouble entering your password, make sure your fingers are clean and dry, and try restarting both your Apple Watch and iPhone.
