Typically, your watch is supposed to automatically sync with your phone. In the event that it fails to sync automatically, there are 5 major considerations and steps that you need to be aware of.

First, sync your health data after each step.

If the watch and phone have never been connected, the app will display “Start.” You will need to tap Start, select the watch from the menu, and then follow the on-screen instructions to connect the watch to your phone.
