Steps: 3 Steps

Got a busted touchscreen on your Apple Watch Ultra 2? No worries, we've got you covered! If your screen is broken or just not responding to touch, this guide will walk you through turning off your watch using its buttons. Once you've powered down, you can move on to the fun part - repairing your trusty timepiece.

Step 1

How to Power Off a Broken Apple Watch Ultra 2

Make sure your Apple Watch Ultra isn’t plugged in while you do this—otherwise, it’s just not going to cooperate!

- Hold down the side button and the Digital Crown together like you're starting a secret handshake.

- Keep both buttons pressed while your Apple Watch does its reboot dance.

Step 2

- Hold down the side button and the Digital Crown together until the Apple logo pops up—then let go of the Digital Crown, but keep holding that side button.

- When the Apple logo vanishes, go ahead and let go of the side button too.

Step 3

The Apple Watch has been powered down. Ready for the next step? If you need help at any point, just schedule a repair with Salvation Repair.

Success!
