How to power off an Apple Watch 38mm

If you cannot turn off the Apple Watch 38mm using the buttons, either because the power button does not work or because it is very difficult to press all the buttons at the same time, you can turn off the Watch 38mm from the settings.

In recent updates to the operating system, the power button is no longer used to turn off the Apple Watch as it would be logical, now it can be configured to activate Siri without the need to use your voice but it will not turn off or restart the device when held down.

Turning off your Watch 38mm from the settings will only take you four simple steps:

Estimated time: 2 minutes.

1- First step:

Press the side button of your Apple Watch 38mm for a few seconds until a screen appears with several options, the first option is to turn off, followed by the option to view medical data and the option to send an SOS emergency request.

How to turn off Apple Watch 38mm if it is not responding?

If you cannot turn off the Apple Watch 38mm either because the screen is broken or because it is locked and the previous method does not work, we must proceed to turn it off using the physical buttons.

To force Watch 38mm to shut down, press and hold the power button (or unlock button) and the digital crown until the Apple logo appears, then release the digital crown and hold the power button. If the screen is broken and we can't slide our finger to turn it off, press and hold the power button for at least 8 seconds until it turns off.

If it continues without responding and without turning off or has gone into a loop, it is possible that some internal component such as the motherboard, memory, the screen or even the power button has broken so you will have to repair it or resort to the guarantee.
