Apple Watch Passcode
Hi, I’m trying to turn the passcode off on my Apple Watch.. I see the option to do so but it is grayed out and won’t let me push it to turn it off. How do I fix this?

If the Turn Passcode Off button is greyed out, passcode restrictions are likely enforced on the iPhone (via a corporate configuration profile, mobile device management or Exchange policy).
Where passcode restrictions are set on a managed iPhone, they also affect Apple Watch. In such cases, it will not therefore be possible to turn off the watch's passcode.
If your iPhone is managed in this way, contact your device administrator for further information and help.
