When the Apple Watch won't charge, it may exhibit several of the following conditions or display specific indicators:
When you try to charge your watch, it may not show up on the screen at all, and it may look like the watch is not responding.
If the battery is extremely low, the screen may display a red low battery icon (lightning bolt symbol) and a red empty battery graphic.
When the watch is charging but the battery level is still very low, a green lightning bolt symbol may be displayed to indicate that the watch is accepting charges.
If your Apple Watch won't charge, here are a few steps you can try:
Make sure you're using an original Apple Watch charger and charging cable, or an Apple-certified third-party accessory.
Inspect the charging cable and charger for damage or dirt. Clean the magnetic connector on the charger and make sure there is no dust or debris obstructing charging.
Try plugging the charger into a different power outlet to rule out power issues.
Make sure the wall outlet or the power strip used is energized.
If your watch shows up but it still won't charge, try force restarting. Press and hold the side button and the digital crown at the same time until you see the Apple logo.
Clean the charging area on the back of the watch to make sure there is no dirt or sweat stains affecting the charging.
If none of the above steps resolve the issue, you may need to contact Apple customer service or visit an Apple retail store for further assistance. There may be a problem with the watch's battery or other hardware.
The correct charging method and the steps to troubleshoot the charging problem can help you solve the charging problem of your Apple Watch and ensure that the watch can be used normally.
