That tab located on one of the hooks of the strap of our Apple Watch was for quite some time the epicenter of many rumors. Later, with the arrival of the first Apple Watch to their owners, we realized that we would not have physical access to the device, this is the Apple Watch's cable connection and only specialized technicians have the tools to physically access it. . However, it was a matter of time before alternatives began to arrive that would allow us to take advantage of this physical connection, and the first of all is iBus, a device that will allow us, among other things, to restore the Apple Watch completely.
When you find yourself facing a software problem on the Apple Watch it becomes a total ordeal, and it is that except for the settings menu of the watch itself, noor we have a physical way to factory reset the watch, which forces us to go to an Apple Store to be served at the Genius Bar, or failing that, send it through the SAT on duty. Well, all this could end thanks to iBus, and it allows us to connect directly with the peculiar cable connection of the Apple Watch.
For the rest we will use iTunes. Surprisingly, the usual Apple management program quickly detects our Apple Watch, and if we want to restore the device we will have to follow the same steps as to restore any other iOS device (although in this case it is watchOS). The problem comes as always with the monetary details, and is that this accessory costs no less than $ 90 on the american website, although it will not take long to provide alternatives on websites such as Amazon. However, the Apple Watch is one of the most delicate devices of the Cupertino company, so we should act with extreme care when faced with this type of mechanism.
