Hi
The built-in cellular feature on Apple Watch Series 3 (GPS + Cellular) requires a service plan for your iPhone in the country of use that specifically includes support for the Apple Watch, including the carrier activating the device on the plan. The feature cannot be used when roaming.
When used in other countries or when used without setting up the built-in cellular feature, the watch still offers the same features as GPS-only models.
Functions that are available on your Apple Watch when it is away from your iPhone depend on various factors including:
- Your Apple Watch model:
- The features of your carrier service plan:
- The type of connectivity that is available to your Apple Watch at the time:
