![]() It's a similar cycle to that of services like iCloud Photo Library and the like - any time your devices are within range, it feeds a steady stream of data between the two. Specifically, that includes:Īpple Watch and iPhone Stand (Image credit: iMore) How often does my iPhone sync to my Apple Watch? In general, the Apple Watch won't sync anything to your iPhone that might pose a security issue. Synced photo album (To see which album syncs, open the Apple Watch app, tap the My Watch tab, then tap Photos > Synced Album.).The Siri Voice Feedback setting that controls when Siri speaks.Playlists, albums, and mixes that are synced to your Apple Watch, and your Music settings.Health and Fitness data, such as history, awards, Workout and Activity calibration data from your Apple Watch, and user-entered data (To back up Health and Fitness data, you need to use iCloud or an encrypted backup on your computer.).General system settings, such as brightness, sound, and haptic settings.Dock settings, including the order, whether you sort by favorites or recents, and available apps.Clock face settings, including your current watch face, customizations, and order.For example, Maps, distance, units, and your settings for Mail, Calendar, Stocks, and Weather. ![]() App-specific data (for built-in apps) and settings (for built-in and third-party apps). ![]() You can also back up your health data separately via a third-party app, but it's not nearly as smooth of a process (and you'll lose all your Activity achievements). Therefore, it's now recommended that you use an encrypted iTunes backup instead, or sync your Health data via iCloud. Note: If you still use a computer to make unencrypted backups of your iPhone, you aren't saving any Health data. Meanwhile, your app data becomes bundled as part of your iPhone backup because Apple Watch apps are technically just extensions of iPhone apps. So, for example, the first three pieces of information get synced to the Health app, where they're either encrypted and stored in iCloud or stored as part of your encrypted iPhone backup. Whenever your Apple Watch gets connected to your iPhone via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, it automatically syncs your latest Health, Workout, Activity, and app data. The new Apple Watch Series 7 should backup precisely as all the older Apple Watch models have in the past.
