Apple Watch prompting me to join my wife's cell phone hotspot daily...? Hey humans! My Apple Watch is prompting me to join my wife's cell phone hotspot daily. I keep telling it to cancel but it persists. Also worth noting is that my wife's hotspot is disabled on her iPhone so I really am wondering what is going on here. Has anyone seen this happen? What is the fix? Thank you in advance!
