Solved: Do I need to factory reset my Watch 6 before repair collection?

blenky · 4 weeks ago

Hi, my Watch 6 classic is being collected tomorrow for repair. I have removed my google account but the watch is still logged into my Samsung account. I can't find anyway to log out of it.

Do I need to do a factory reset before it is collected?

Cheers

Unless they have said not to.
Then yes definitely
It will likely get the software wiped during the repair process. But it's safer for you to control who can potentially get access to your details

Best to reset it, lest they get funny about it.
