This is the problem. Below are the instructions how to set up it (I’ve already found that before)

  1. On your iPhone, open the Apple Watch app.
  2. Tap the My Watch tab, then tap Cellular.
  3. Tap Set Up Cellular.
  4. Follow the instructions for your carrier. You might need to contact your carrier for help.


I cannot find the Cellular in the watch app. It shows me nothing when I click on the My Watch tab.

You can still make calls and send texts,you just have to have your phone with you in order to do this.


Apple Watch (GPS only) lets you send and receive text messages, answer phone calls and receive notifications when it’s connected to your iPhone via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. The built-in GPS works independently of your iPhone for distance, pace and route mapping in workouts.
