Using more than 1 cellular watch with an iPhone ?

avon75 — Sun, 11 Oct 2020 19:09:36 GMT

I’ve been using a non-EE cellular Series 4 watch for a while with my iPhone, and it was added to my account for £5 a month which allows me to receive calls from my iPhone number on my Series 4 using cellular (even though my account shows the watch has a separate number).

I now want to buy a cellular Series 6 from EE and add to my account - can I have 2 watches that are linked to my main EE iPhone number ? Apple support site says to check with your operator.

Hi @avon75

I believe you can connect more than one, however you can only use one at any time.

@Chris_B will likely know for sure.

Thanks

@avon75 I’ll be totally honest I’m not sure if you can actually have it setup like that ie linked to the same account so when your phone rings both watches ring, you can have a family plan for your 2nd Apple watch which means your second watch will have its own unique number which means if someone was to call you on that watch they don’t call your phone number but the watch number.

Thanks. All I want to do is swap between both watches and use one at a time with my phone - like I do now with my series 4 cellular and my first gen WiFi only watch. I don’t need both watches to ring on my iPhone number

Hi @avon75,

Sorry, it isn't possible to have two cellular watch plans linked to one phone number.

Thanks
