Thank you for the helpful information. My son resolved the issue by taking my phone and watch to a place that received cell service to finish the engagement of the two app and once he did they work fine on only the wi-fi. It was very frustrating because in all the questions asked this never seemed to have come up. But solution was must have cell service.
