You'd better learn how to eject water from an Apple Watch. Apple Watch Series 2 and newer feature water resistance to 50m, meaning you can take them to the gym, for a swim and wear them in the shower without worrying about water damage. However, before doing any of these, you should still water lock your Apple Watch before doing starting and eject any water which makes its way into the device when you're done.&nbsp;
Water locking your device locks the screen to prevent accidental functioning when underwater.

Water ejecting purges any water stuck inside the watch. Handily, they're both done using the same feature. You may be wondering why you need to purge water from the watch if it is water resistant.

Well, water resistance is not the same as water proofing (where water cannot enter the watch), and means that the internal components are built to resist water damage under certain conditions. Water can get in, but the internals are resistant to it damaging them, usually by being coated in water repellent substances.

Eventually, though, that resistance will fade, at which point your Apple Watch may break if exposed to water. It'll fade faster if you take your watch to water depths it isn't designed for, if soaps or harsh chemicals get inside it, or if you leave water within the device for too long. Obviously, you can avoid the first two by not going diving with your Apple Watch and keeping it away from soaps when hand washing or in the shower.

Ejecting water manually is the way to prevent damage from the third - it prevents water from staying inside your device for long periods. It's really easy to do and we've covered the steps below. Here's how to eject water from an Apple Watch.

Keep turning and the droplet icon will turn to bubbles. You'll notice your Apple Watch making some beeping sounds and may even see and feel water being pushed out of the speakers.

You're done. Your Apple Watch has been purged of water and you can rest assured that you've done all that you can to maintain its water resistance and prolong its life.
