How to eject water from your Apple Watch

Apple Watch 7.

In the past, getting water anywhere near your tech was a death sentence. Now, many smart devices come with a water-resistant or waterproof rating, including most Apple Watch models. In fact, most Apple Watches actually come with a unique feature called Water Lock, which allows it to actually eject water after it's been wet.

If you have an Apple Watch Series 2 or newer, this game-changing feature will often turn on automatically when submerged, whether you're swimming, tubing, or wakeboarding. While the watch itself is water-resistant up to 50 meters (and the Ultra series up to 100 meters), that doesn't prevent water from getting in its open ports. That's when Water Lock truly comes in handy — here's how to use it.
