Manage your Apple ID settings on Apple Watch

In watchOS 8 you can view and edit information associated with your Apple ID. You can add and edit your contact information, change your password, add a trusted phone number, and more.

Edit contact information

  1. Open the Settings app on your Apple Watch.

  2. Tap [your user name].

  3. Tap Name, Phone Numbers, Email, then do any of the following:

    • Edit your name: Tap your name, then tap First, Middle, or Last.

    • View, edit, and add contact information: Tap a phone number or email address under Reachable At. To remove an email address, tap it, then tap Remove Email Address.

    • Add email addresses and phone numbers: Tap Add Email or Phone Number, choose to add an email address or phone number, tap Next, enter the information, then tap Done.

    • Hide your email address: Tap Forward To.

      This option allows apps to contact you without receiving your real email address. When you choose this option, Apple creates a unique, random email address for you, and any email sent from the app to this address is forwarded to the personal address you choose.

    • Change your birthday: Tap Birthday, then enter a new date.

    • Get announcements, recommendations, or the Apple News newsletter: Under Subscriptions, you can turn on Announcements; recommendations for apps, music, TV, and more; or opt in to the Apple News Newsletter.

Manage Apple ID password and security

  1. Open the Settings app on your Apple Watch.

  2. Tap [your user name].

  3. Tap Password & Security, then do any of the following:

    • Change your Apple ID password: Tap Change Password, then follow the onscreen instructions.

    • Change “Sign in with Apple” settings for an app or website: Tap Apps Using Your Apple ID, then choose an app. Tap Stop Using Apple ID to disassociate your Apple ID from the app. (You may be asked to create a new account the next time you try to sign in with the app.)

    • Edit or add a trusted phone number: Tap your current trusted phone number, verify when prompted, then tap Remove Phone Number—if you have only one trusted number, you must enter a new one before you can delete the current number. To add an additional trusted phone number, tap Add a Trusted Phone Number.

    • Get a verification code to sign in on another device or at iCloud.com: Tap Get Verification Code.

    Note: Some subscriptions must be canceled on your iPhone.
