With the new family setup, can I have a GPS Series 3 work as it currently does (for me), but add a new Watch for my kid (under family setup)?

Currently on an iPhone 11 and have my own series 3 (GPS). I'm reading family setup works with series 4 and up (only GPS + Cellular). I want to be sure i can keep using my watch as is but add another for my child.


Thanks!

Answered through a specialist chat - you can have a Series 3 GPS managed through the Watch app on the iphone and have the new (Series 4 or above, GPS + Cellular) watch managed through the Family Setup.
