Apple Watch 6 Cellular Setup

Keeps cycling round and round. I go to set up cellular and want to keep stand alone mode. Takes me through screens until the factory reset screen, then it drops me back at the start of set up cellular. What Am I missing? First time Apple watch user, and at this point not very impressed.

If you have the GPS-Cellular model of Watch, is the watch supported by your iPhone's cellular service provider? To use a cellular watch, you need to add a cellular plan to your existing iPhone plan. If your service provider doesn't support the cellular model, then it is a waste of your money buying that model.


M1 Mac mini, macOS 11.0.1; Watch, series 5 GPS/cellular, watchOS 7.1; iPad Pro 2nd Gen, iPadOS 14.2; iPad Air 2, iPadOS 14.2; iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 14.2.1; TV 4th Gen, tvOS 14.2  HomePods, audioOS 14.1 and Airport Express w/ Airplay 2
