You can view and edit information associated with your Apple Account. You can update your contact information, change your password, manage trusted phone numbers, and more.

Edit personal information

1. Go to the Settings app on your Apple Watch.

2. Tap your name, tap Personal Information, then do any of the following:

   • Edit your name: Tap your name, then tap First, Middle, or Last.

   • Change your birthday: Tap Birthday, then enter a new date.

   • Get announcements, recommendations, or the Apple News newsletter: Tap Communication Preferences. You can turn on announcements; recommendations for apps, music, TV, and more; or opt in to the Apple News Newsletter.

Change your Apple Account password and security

Note: If you’ve turned on Stolen Device Protection on your paired iPhone, you can’t change your Apple Account password and security settings on Apple Watch. See the Apple Support article About Stolen Device Protection for iPhone.

1. Go to the Settings app on your Apple Watch.

2. Tap your name, then tap Sign-In & Security.

   The phone numbers and email addresses associated with your Apple Account are listed, along with their status—for example, Primary or Verified.

3. Do any of the following:

   • Remove a verified email address: Tap the address, then tap Remove Email Address.

   • Add email addresses and phone numbers: Tap Add Email or Phone Number, choose to add an email address or phone number, tap Next, enter the information, then tap Done.

   • Change your Apple Account password: Tap Change Password, then follow the onscreen instructions.

   • Edit or add a trusted phone number: Tap Two-Factor Authentication, tap your current trusted phone number, verify when prompted, then tap Remove Phone Number—if you have only one trusted number, you must enter a new one before you can delete the current number. To add an additional trusted phone number, tap Add a Trusted Phone Number.

   • Get a verification code to sign in on another device or at iCloud.com: Tap Two-Factor Authentication, then tap Get Verification Code.

   • Change “Sign in with Apple” settings for an app or website: Tap Sign in with Apple, then choose an app. Tap Stop Using Apple Account to disassociate your Apple Account from the app. (You may be asked to create a new account the next time you try to sign in with the app.)

   • Hide your email address: Tap Forward To, then choose an address.

     This option allows apps to contact you without storing your real email address. When you choose this option, Apple creates a unique, random email address for you, and any email sent from the app to this address is forwarded to the personal address you choose.

   • See Recovery Key status: Learn whether you’ve set up a recovery key for your Apple Account.

     With two-factor authentication and an Apple device, you have the option to generate a recovery key on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac to help improve account security. If you need to reset your password, you can use your recovery key to regain access to your Apple Account. See the Apple Support article Set up a recovery key for your Apple Account.
