Updating Your Watch
If you don’t have an iPhone, you can still update your Apple Watch. To do so, you’ll need to download the Watch OS software directly from Apple.
Before you update, it’s a good idea to back up your watch. You can do this by opening the Apple Watch app on your iPhone, tapping “My Watch,” and then selecting “General.” From there, scroll down and tap “Reset,” and then select “Erase all Content and Settings.” This will back up your watch to your iPhone.
Once you’ve backed up your watch, go to Apple’s support site and download the watchOS software for your specific model of Apple Watch. After the download is complete, open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone. Once the app has updated, you should see the option to update your watch.
