Apple Watch Series 4 Elevation Locked at 0M
Hello everyone ,
To have the information of Elevation on my Apple watch cell phone series 4, paired with my iPhone X, during exercise bike or walk, I am obliged to put my iPhone in the world plane, so that the altimeter of the watch works and gives me the information of altitude difference, if not the same exercise or course with the iPhone except plane mode gives no information of difference in altitude
I have been in touch for several days with Apple support, we have checked all the settings and everything is correct, I even performed a calibration of the watch and remove the pairing to the iPhone X
and today for the moment this is their conclusion to the problem from the audience:
This is what Apple concluded for the moment of my concern, since I have the cellular version of the Apple Watch 4 with eSIM not activated the watch takes the mobile network via the iPhone X and would not activate the altimeter of the watch and when the iPhone is in airplane mode the communication between the two is cut off, then the Apple watch finds it independent and will activate its altimeter
What do you think about this ? And is someone in the same situation as me? Iphone X, and Apple Watch 4 without package activated? and will have the same concern?
thank you
