I want to buy my 9 year old a smart watch that I can use to contact him without having to buy him a phone. Is it possible to buy an Apple Watch and connect it to cellular without having it connected to a phone?
Not only would it use your iPhone's phone number, you child would also get your text and iMessages, make phone calls as you, have all your contacts, be able to access your email, etc...
Not a very good idea to let your child use your iPhone as its paired device.
No it isn't,an apple watch requires an iphone in order to set it up and communicate with,also the watch uses the phones number to make calls and send texts.
Could I connect the watch to my phone with a different number assigned to it?
No,The watch uses the sim card in your phone.
Can you have an Apple Watch as a stand alone device, without a phone?
