How to set up your Friends list on Apple Watch

Your nearest and dearest can always be close to you when you add them to your Friends list on Apple Watch.

You can add your favorite contacts to Apple Watch in order to quickly access them by pressing the Side button. You can add contacts, reorder them, and delete them from your Friend list via the Watch app for the iPhone. You can also add as many contacts as you want by creating Friend groups. But first, here's how to add contacts to your Friends list on Apple Watch.

How to set up your Friends list on Apple Watch

You can add contacts to your Friends list from Apple Watch.

  2. Rotate the Digital Crown clockwise until you select an empty contact spot.
  3. Tap the Plus (+) icon.
  4. Tap a Contact to add it.
  5. Repeat steps three and four until you have set all of your Friends.

You can also add contacts to your Friends list by using the Watch app on the iPhone.

  2. Scroll down and tap Friends.
  3. Tap the plus (+) icon.

  4. Tap a contact to add it.
  5. Repeat steps three and four until you have set all of your Friends.

New contacts will automatically be added to your Friend list on Apple Watch.

How to reorder your Friends on Apple Watch

Of course no one wants to admit that they have a favorite "favorite." But, let's be honest, we all do. You can only reorder your Friends list using the Watch app on the iPhone. Here's how.

  1. On your iPhone, open the Watch app.
  2. Scroll down and tap Friends.

  3. Touch and hold on the contact you wish to move.
  4. Drag the contact to its new location.

Moving a contact is similar to rearranging apps on the iPhone or iPad. The others will move out of the way to the left or right, depending on where you want the contact to be.

How to delete your Friends on Apple Watch

Are you and your bestie fighting? Do you want your ex off your favorites list forever? Don't worry, these lists aren't set in stone. You can delete any contact from your Friends list (without deleting them from your contacts) using the Watch app on your iPhone.

  1. On your iPhone, open the Watch app.
  2. Scroll down and tap Friends.

  3. Select the contact you wish to remove.
  4. Tap the X in the middle of the screen.
  5. Tap Remove Friend.
