If you own an Apple Watch Series 5, you may be wondering how to manage and get rid of phone call and call history. Fortunately, it is a simple process as the Apple Watch and iPhone are connected and synced. In this article, we will guide you through the steps to delete contacts on Apple Watch Series 5.
Firstly, open the Apple Watch phone app. You will see different sections such as Contacts and Recent where the call history is stored. Click on Recent to see all the recent calls and call history. While you can browse and call the person again by clicking on it, you won’t get any additional options if you hold down or force press on it. In this case, you need to grab your iPhone and navigate to the Phone app.
On the iPhone, you will see more options on how to edit the call history. Click on Edit in the upper right corner to delete or remove some phone calls from the history. You can slide on it or click on the red button on the left to delete it. Once it is deleted on the iPhone, it will automatically be removed from the history on the Apple Watch. You also need to clear all contacts in the upper left corner by clicking on it and confirming it one more time.
However, this may not always work. If you have a cellular Apple Watch or a dedicated e-sim on it, you won’t be able to edit the call history. In this case, the only option is to be stuck with it. It is important to note that the Apple Watch and iPhone may not be perfectly synced, and there may be some basic ways to fix it. For example, you can go to the Watch app on the iPhone and navigate to the General section and reset async data at the bottom.
Besides this, you can update to the latest version of the iOS Watch OS, unpair the Apple Watch from the iPhone, and repeat the whole process of pairing it back again. Hopefully, these steps will help you delete contacts on Apple Watch Series 5.
In conclusion, deleting contacts on Apple Watch Series 5 is a straightforward process. While it may not work for cellular Apple Watch or dedicated e-sim, there are some basic ways to fix syncing issues. If you found this article helpful, feel free to leave a thumbs up or comment to let us know.
