If I own two iWatch, can it auto sync with my only iPhone once I put it on?

I remember I have to unpair my old watch first, before sync with new watch and it takes long time to sync (painful).

Any simple way to switch between one sports iWatch and one prof iWatch during day and night for the same phone? Thanks!

There is no iWatch. There has never been an iWatch.

It's been called Apple Watch since its 2015 debut.

So i could use my Series 7 during the day and use my Series 4 for sleep tracking at night and both watch data will be synced ?

that's my question too, thought the sync may be a mess?

Of course it will sync. I did just that with my S3 for daytime and my original watch for sleep (AutoSleep) ’a few years ago’ and had no problem at all.

Why Apple's timepiece is not called the Apple iWatch

When speculation first surfaced about an Apple built smartwatch, it was thought that the device would be called the Apple iWatch. In light of other products like the Apple iPhone, Apple iPad and Apple iPod, the iWatch moniker seemed to be a no brainer. Even right up to the very day that Apple...

Great, so Apple doesn't have to pay for the loyalty fee, while users like me can just call it iWatch! Problem solved~

I suppose I can call my iPhone a Samsung Galaxy if I want.

I mean, problem is not solved since you’re calling it something it isn’t.

Samsung is public traded and galaxy is widely present around the globe, while "iWatch" is nowhere associated with any other legal entity, plus itself instinctively connected to your backend of entorhinal cortex...

E.g. if you google "iWatch" on Amazon, it turns out "Apple watch" recommended best choice! haha

That all sounds smart but the bottom line is, the Apple Watch is not an iWatch just like the iPhone was never a Galaxy. Never was and never will be. So by your logic, I can call the Apple Watch an Air Watch?

It’s just a search keyword Amazon uses because they know that’s a common MISTAKE when referring to the Apple Watch lol. I can also spell something wrong and it will automatically correct it and take me to the right place. They’re in the business of making money and they will funnel all their customers to the right place using keywords.

And every one of those that you mentioned is correct EXCEPT "iWatch", which isn't a thing. You can keep calling it that, certainly, but know that it comes off as uneducated about the product and makes most people cringe hard. Nobody is trying to tell you what to do - they are just telling you the reaction they have when you insist on doing it.
