PIN Recovery Instructions for Your Android Watch

If you've forgotten the PIN to unlock your Android watch, a factory reset is necessary. Follow these steps to reset your Moto360:

1. Power On and Enter Recovery Mode:
   - Press and hold both buttons on the watch to turn it on. If the watch needs charging, you may need to place it on the charging unit while doing this. When done correctly, a black screen with white and red text will appear.
   - Continue holding the crown button until the screen displays "Recovery mode."

2. Initiate Factory Reset:
   - Keep holding the crown button until the screen goes dark, indicating a different mode.
   - Swipe up on the screen and select "Wipe data/factory reset."
   - Press the crown button to confirm the reset.

   Note: Performing a factory reset erases all apps, settings, and data on your watch.

Follow these additional steps to reconnect and set up your watch and phone from the beginning:

1. Disconnect and Unpair:
   - Open the Wear OS app on your Android phone (or follow instructions from your companion app if applicable).
   - Navigate to Advanced Settings.

2. Set Up from Scratch:
   - Open the Wear OS app on your phone.
   - Tap "Start Setup."
