Toothbrush and rubbing alcohol wipe worked perfectly. Had to wiggle it for a little bit but it's a great option if you're nervous about sticking your watch in water.
Thank you Spartan Watches. You helped me get my release button fixed after two years of it being jammed. I can finally switch to a new band. Thank you thank you
Bro, I have a sticky situation as my watch had a Spigen’s protective bumper around the watch, so I am unable to put my finger into the bumper & press on the release button, so what should I do if I need to change a new strap or do a new rotation??? The thing I can’t remove the bumper because it’s a full wrap type. I need your help in this ASAP. Thanks!
Hmmm this is definitely a sticky situation. Have you tried using something thin like a toothpick or hair pin? Once you find something thin enough, you can use that to push down the release button while you try to slide the band out. Hope that helps you! If not, then send us a DM through our website or support email with a picture of the issue so we can get a closer look to see how we can help you.
Bro i have a watch and Its dt8 ultra max the first side strap opens but the secend side wont.. what do?? but i litterly bought it.. anyone knows some tips??
How long has it been stuck for? I would try going through the steps in the video a few times and if it still is stuck then go to the support team for where you bought it.
tried on a new watch strap and it was struck, didn’t realize there was a release button this whole time, wanna know why?? bc I had my original strap on the wrong way, so it never locked and easily was removed…. My brain … it’s so dumb sometimes
@@SpartanWatches Hi, a little over a year now..I tried the hot water, alcohol, used a sonic toothbrush with the applications even. Thank you for helping
Sheesh 😅 yeah that makes sense. I hope you get it unstuck soon! When you do, try to take your band off every week or so just to make sure this never happens again. Cleaning the inside slots every now and then will help prevent it getting stuck again 👍
Hey sorry to hear you haven’t been able to get it off yet. You can try these additional methods: 1. Compressed Air: Use a can of compressed air to blow out any debris or dust that might be lodged in the release button mechanism. This can often dislodge particles that are causing the button to stick. 2. Heating Pad or Warm Compress: Sometimes, applying a bit of gentle heat can help loosen any substances that might be causing the button to stick. Use a heating pad or a warm compress around the button area for a short period. Be careful not to overheat the watch. 3. Gently Tapping: Sometimes, a gentle tap on the watch can help dislodge any particles that are stuck. Tap the side of the watch against a soft surface like a padded mat or your palm. 4. Professional Cleaning: If the button remains stuck, it might be time to take the watch to a professional for cleaning. They have specialized tools and experience in dealing with such issues without damaging the watch. 5. Avoiding Sticky Substances: As a preventative measure, be mindful of exposing your watch to substances that could cause stickiness, like lotions, oils, or sticky foods. 6. Regular Maintenance: Regularly cleaning the watch and the release button area can prevent the buildup of grime and dirt that could lead to the button getting stuck in the future. After you clean it as much as you can, you may have to give it some force while trying to slide your band out as you hold the release button. But Remember, it’s important to be as gentle as you can with these methods to avoid damaging the watch.

Didn't you get LASIK??
Spartans don't need LASIK
None of they above helped😢😢😢
When was the last time you changed your band out? And have you tried to take it to Apple to see what they may be able to do?
@@SpartanWatches it was a new watch band, and I change my bands, pretty often I think it was the band itself, but it finally came off Thank you.
@@stefanniewilson4134 You're very welcome. Glad to hear it finally came off!
Why run water if it’s not water proof
Good point! Which is why we recommend doing this carefully and only for a few seconds. Thankfully the Apple Watch is water resistant 👌
