Hey,

Is there any cover or protector for the back side of the apple watch, where the sensors are?
I can‘t find anyrhing.
Applewatch 5 Aluminium 44mm


I‘m getting a small rash there and I want to know if it is caused by the contact of the sensor.

Tank You.

There is no cover for the back side of the watch because the presence of a cover would affect the reliability of the sensors as it interferes with how they work. If you've getting a rash, Apple recommends not too wear the watch too tightly and ensure that your skin and watch are both clean and dry. If you're still getting a rash, you're probably allergic to the materials used in the sensors.

Thanks for the answer.

Actually there is or better was a cover for the Apple watch 1-3, even from different companies.
I also found other Threads with links for the current apple watch. But the products were miscontinued or are out of stock.

I know the Tipps for the rash and also tested allergies, but this does not my problem because I want to keep the apple watch.
