To stop your Apple Watch from locking, you can turn off the passcode. This will allow you to use your watch without having to enter a passcode every time you want to access it.
Here are the steps to turn off the passcode on your Apple Watch:
1. Open the Settings app on your Apple Watch. You can do this by pressing the Digital Crown to access the app grid, and then tapping on the Settings app, which is represented by a gear icon.
2. Within the Settings app, scroll down and tap on “Passcode”. This will bring you to the passcode settings menu.
3. In the Passcode settings menu, you will see an option to “Turn Passcode Off”. Tap on this option.
4. You will be prompted to enter your current passcode to confirm that you want to turn off the passcode. Enter your passcode using the watch’s keypad or by using the watch’s paired iPhone.
5. After entering your current passcode, the passcode will be disabled, and you will no longer be required to enter a passcode to unlock your Apple Watch.
It’s important to note that turning off the passcode removes an added layer of security from your Apple Watch. Without a passcode, anyone who has access to your watch can use it freely without any authentication. Therefore, it’s recommended to only turn off the passcode if you are comfortable with the potential risks and have taken necessary precautions to protect your watch.
Additionally, turning off the passcode may impact certain features of your Apple Watch, such as Apple Pay. If you use Apple Pay on your watch, you will need to re-enable the passcode to continue using this feature.
In summary, to stop your Apple Watch from locking, you can turn off the passcode by following the steps outlined above. However, it’s important to consider the security implications and potential impact on certain features before disabling the passcode.
