iPhone 12 mini unpairs with Apple watch series 8 during set-up

After I pair my new Apple watch series 8 with my iPhone 12 mini and then attempt to set-up the watch, it unpairs. I've tried many times. Anyone have a solution for this?


To answer some questions in advance:

Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are on

It is not in Airplane mode

I've restarted both the phone and the watch multiple times.


Thanks.

If your Apple Watch still can't connect, unpair it from your iPhone, then pair your Apple Watch and iPhone again.

For more info, see:

If you still need help, contact Apple Support.
