Hi


Functions that are available on your Apple Watch when it is away from your iPhone depend on various factors including:


  • Your Apple Watch model.
  • Whether or not Wi-Fi Calling is enabled on your carrier service plan and also on your iPhone:

    Make a call with Wi-Fi Calling - Apple Support

  • The type of connectivity that is available to your Apple Watch at the time.


Features and requirements that apply under various circumstances are detailed here:
