When the Apple Watch is on, the watch face will appear if you tap on the screen or press a side button.

You can also turn off Apple Watch by using the same button.

My Side Button Is Broken!

Even if the side button is broken on your Apple Watch, there is a way to turn on your Apple Watch. Your Apple Watch is designed to turn back on when you connect it to a power source, even when it has no battery life left.

First, plug your charger into a wall socket. Next, place your Apple Watch to the charger. Shortly after, the Apple logo will flash on the screen and your Apple Watch will turn back on.

The Apple Watch uses a magnetic charger that comes with Apple Watch, or a Qi wireless charger, so you could use either of those to charge the battery.
