How to Take the Band off Your Apple Watch

Since its release in 2015, Apple Watches have been one of the most in-demand pieces of tech on the market. They also make a great fashion accessory, so one of the things we were most curious about was how to change the band on the Apple Watch so you can customize it just how you want it!

Chances are you’ll want to remove your Apple Watch band at some point to change out the band because there is such a variety available, or you’ll want to remove the band to give your watch and band a deep cleaning.

But, since they are delicate pieces of technology, you’ll want to make sure you don’t do it incorrectly and run the risk of damaging your watch. Read on to find out just how to take the band off an Apple Watch 🙂

Take Band off Apple Watch

Removing the band is a simple, straightforward process. So next time you’re looking to change up your style — or give your watch a much-needed clean — you can do it in no time.

Before you get started, you’ll want to put down a microfiber cloth or work on a soft surface. Apple Watch screens scratch easily, so try not to change the band on a hard or rough surface.

Next, flip the watch over so that its face is lying down flat on the surface, facing away from you. You should see two long, thin buttons at the top and bottom of the watch’s back. These are the release buttons.

Start with either button, pressing one at a time. Press and hold the button, then pull the band to the left and right until it begins to slide out of its groove. Repeat the process with the other watch strap. Now you should have both straps out of the watch.

Cleaning Your Band and Watch

Once you take the band off the Apple watch, you’ll likely notice that it’s pretty dirty. There’s probably grime or dirt in the watchband grooves and on the band itself, including buildup from daily wear and tear, soap, or makeup.

How to Replace Band on Apple Watch

Now that you have your watch band off, you’ll probably want to replace it with another one. The good news is that this step is even more straightforward. Head over to the Get Scrunched shop and grab the one you like the most!

How to Swap Apple Watch Band

On your watch band, you should see small grooves down the end of each side. These interlock with either side of the watch, so your Apple Watch knows when a new band is connected.

To connect your new band, slide one side into the top or bottom of the watch. You should feel a click that will let you know it’s connected. Repeat with the other half of the band. 

Wiggle the band around a little to ensure it’s firmly in place and won’t detach during daily wear.

Summary

It’s just a few quick steps to swap Apple Watch bands. Changing and replacing your watchband is easy and something you should do for regular cleaning. These steps work on all current models of Apple Watches.
