What can I do on Apple Watch if I don’t own an iPhone?

I’m considering buying an Apple Watch but I do not own an iphone and I was wondering what I will be able to do with it if even be able to use it at all. Please could someone help me, thanks

Hi


Nothing at all, I'm afraid.


A compatible model of iPhone is required in order to set up and use all models of Apple Watch, including for managing and syncing with the Apple Watch over time:


  • Apple Watch Series 3 (GPS + Cellular) requires an iPhone 6 or newer with the latest version of iOS 11.x.
  • Apple Watch Series 3 (GPS) and all other Apple Watch models require an iPhone 5s or newer with the latest version of iOS 11.x.


Apple Watch cannot be set up and used on a standalone basis or synced with any other device from Apple or any other manufacturer.
