What you will need
Before you start changing the strap on your Galaxy Watch Active, gather the following items:
- Galaxy Watch Active
- New strap compatible with the Galaxy Watch Active
- Thumb or spring bar tool (optional, but recommended)
Step 1: Prepare your workspace
Find a clean and well-lit area where you can comfortably work on your Galaxy Watch Active. It’s important to have a clutter-free space to prevent misplacing any small parts.
Step 2: Locate the strap release buttons
Flip your Galaxy Watch Active over and locate the two strap release buttons on each side of the watch’s underside.
Step 3: Press the strap release buttons
Using your thumb or the spring bar tool, press the strap release buttons simultaneously. This will release the existing strap from the watch.
Step 4: Remove the old strap
Gently pull the old strap away from the watch, detaching it completely.
Step 5: Attach the new strap
Take your new strap and align it with the slots on the watch’s underside. Make sure the strap is securely inserted into the slots.
Step 6: Lock the new strap
Press the new strap downwards until you hear a click. This indicates that the strap is locked and secure.
Step 7: Repeat for the other side (if applicable)
If your new strap has a separate piece for the other side of the watch, repeat steps 3 to 6 for that side as well.
Step 8: Double-check the strap’s attachment
Ensure that the strap is firmly attached to the watch by gently tugging on it from both sides. It should not come loose or detach easily.
Step 9: Enjoy your new strap!
Congratulations! You have successfully changed the strap on your Galaxy Watch Active. Now you can enjoy a fresh look and feel for your watch.
Changing the strap on your Galaxy Watch Active is a simple process that allows you to personalize your device. Whether you prefer a sporty silicone strap or an elegant leather one, you can easily switch between different styles to match any occasion.
Remember, always refer to the manufacturer’s instructions and guidelines when handling your Galaxy Watch Active. Enjoy experimenting with different straps and show off your personal style!
