Hi, I suggest you to try to restart and reset your watch. You will need to back up your data before you perform the reset. This will ensure your data can be restored and that you are able to access your watch after it is reset. If necessary, turn off the Reactivation lock. This lock only needs to be turned off in case you plan to sell or give the phone away. Please save any information you need prior to the factory reset because your personal information cannot be recovered. When it's time to reset your watch, you can do so on your phone. Just open the Galaxy Wearable app on the phone, and then touch the SETTINGS tab. Touch Find My Watch and then touch SET SECURITY. Next, touch Reset watch, and then touch RESET. If you have set a Reactivation Lock, you will be prompted to enter your Samsung account password. Enter your Samsung account password and then touch CONFIRM.

Hello, rebooting did not help. After resetting I cannot pair the watch to my phone since I can't tap ok on the watch to accept pairing.

Have you recently restored your watch with any backup? It does have a bug when we restore with a backup.

Recently i have had the same issue i had to reset the watch and skipped the restore option during setup.

Please try to reset your watch from recovery menu and dont restore anything from your backup.

Let me know if that works 😀
