Anyone no how to download apps to watch when it is a family set up phone but not attached to phone? Everything else works but it always asks to go through phone when it has no phone attached. I can call my daughter and text but we cannot load apps to her watch. Any help is appreciated.
With Family Setup, your family member who doesn't have their own iPhone can use their Apple Watch to do things like make phone calls, send messages, and share their location with you.
After you set up a watch for a family member, you can use your iPhone to manage some of the watch's capabilities.
Note that some Apple Watch features depend on having a companion iPhone, and aren't available on an Apple Watch that you pair using Family Setup.
