Bro holy shit, had my watch for 2 years---paid for cellular access the entire time but was too dumb to fix it. You got me right within 30 seconds. Have my sub king
Haha I had the same thing with 5G on my phone so I get it! Thanks a lot I hope I can live up to your expectations! Coming out with an Oura Ring vs Ultrahuman Ring video soon 🫡
Was having issues getting my new watch connected to cellular. Turning Bluetooth and WiFi off on both devices . Turning on cellular . Worked for me ! Been searching all day. Thank you ❤
So I put my phone on airplane mode. Restarted my watch. The cellular button was still grey and the watch was saying my phone is still connected with the watch. I also wanna point out that with T-Mobile, it’s linked to my phone number. It does have a separate phone number as well but it doesn’t work.
Hello, I have to push the airplane mode in, then I get 4G connection. But when I go to walk and leave the phone on with connection the watch don’t have 4G. So I have first to push airplane mode before to go out. Is this normal? Great vid!!
Thanks for the compliment! Bottom line is that when your watch is connected to your phone via Bluetooth or to WiFi when you’re at home, it won’t activate 4G. When you turn airplane mode on it turns those off usually. So to ensure that the 4G works make sure your phone isn’t connected via Bluetooth or WiFi and then the 4G will turn on. I hope that helps!
just got new AW yesterday but can anyone tell me how to connect or how to set up cellular if i wish to use two AW using the same carrier and connect to the same iphone.. .
You can only connect to 1x number at a time per watch. You can have 2 different numbers on one phone, then connect each watch to each number though if the particular phone numbers aren't an issue.
Hmmm.. I’d say, make sure iMessage is turned on in the watch settings and set to the correct number and that cellular is connected. Restarting the watch as well, turning off the WiFi and Bluetooth in settings as well to ensure it’s not interfering. Also remember that the messages arrive at a delay, not much more than 1 minute max, just like how calls incoming are slightly delayed something to keep in mind. Those are the tips I usually run through to get it working
I got the new Apple Watch series 10 cellular and I got the the sim activated but in the status menu it always shows no connection can you help me fix that?
It’s a constant game of playing around with it to get it to work. Nothing specific you can do to make it work past that. Just make sure your Bluetooth and WiFi are off and continue to try to connect to cellular. Sometimes it can take a few times of turning it on in the settings for it to really connect.
What about third part app notifications? I don’t seem to receive those when I’m away from my phone (on a run). I do receive calls and texts but no third party notifications
Are they signed in on the watch? Make sure they are, make sure you can open them on a run, and make sure the notifications in your watch settings are enabled to how you like them
Not the phone, everything should be turned off on the watch besides the cellular and should be disconnected. If you don’t do it this way then the WiFi on the watch could turn back on
Wow, having to set it up with a different Apple ID makes me want to return it. I got mine as a second apple watch and chose a standalone plan because my main watch is already connected via Number share. Having a different Apple ID means none of stuff will be synched. That is trash.
@@CalmCollectiveATL Hmm it's tough. I would maybe try communicated with Apple too. Keep me posted because this is the extent of my knowledge with this and unfortunately it's very nuanced.
Hi, thanks for the video, I will check. What I am confused about is my 7 was working great and a few months ago, no longer, issue after issue. My whatsapp and calls etc were all good. No constantly working and then not. Paired at least 7 times at my cellular provider. If i start over your way, will whatsapp also work as before or only calls and text messages?
Aw man I’m sorry to hear that. Things like that happen all the time with tech after a while. Unfortunately I don’t have much experience with WhatsApp and least of all on Apple Watch. I’m sure you could’ve tried this with your provider but try backing up your watch and resetting it. Give it a fresh install. Sometimes things like that work..
Sometimes it takes a few cycles for it to work right. Make sure the watch was paired correctly and the Cellular plan activated. If you’re sure on that then do this. Make sure you have the WiFi and Bluetooth off in your watch settings. Then navigate to your watch Home Screen (aka your clock, check the time lol). Once you’re there, swipe up (or down depending on your watch OS version), and tap the cellular icon that’s most likely greyed out. After you do that, you should make sure the cellular data switch is on and you should see your watch saying connecting eventually it’ll connect. As soon as that happens you can go back to your watch face again and swipe to the control panel to see that the greyed cellular icon to be green on LTE/4G. Say it isn’t, repeat that cycle a couple times and it should eventually connect if all is right as I said in the beginning of this comment. Let me know what happens!
I was hoping this would fix it but it didn’t I did every step even when I turned bluetooth off it was still connected but it say plan no sim and status not connected but for the first fcouple of months it was perfectly fine I hope you can help me
You need to repair your IMEI to your data plan. Go to your providers store or call in, give them your imei for that watch line and follow their steps. You should be good.
I believe you would be able to do that. It would get tedious though. To use your phone’s line on your watch you’d have to connect it via Bluetooth and once you do that the cellular for the watch goes off because it’s connected to a phone with cellular. So to then use your watch line again you’d need to disconnect Bluetooth from your watch and phone. It can be done but it’s not pretty lol
Hi , i hope if u could help me to make a cellular work on a apple watch serie 4 that i strigle with , i ve followed all the steps on the video but i the 4G foesnt turn on it self .
The model needs to be a cellular watch model. Check the digital crown on your watch, if there's a red circle in the center of it then it can work and what you need to do at that point is make sure the watch is paired with an eSIM.
Maybe I’m just a dummy, but I just don’t understand how to do this. Turn Bluetooth off on my phone? Can’t set up the watch without Bluetooth being on. If I can’t get past this step, how does one continue?
That’s normal. It’s not lightning fast because it’s forwarding the message to your watch from your phone’s number. If you’re not convinced you can restart both devices, it could make a difference.
That’s happened to me too it’s very finicky. Continue to try turning cellular on, then try restarting the watch and see if that works. Make sure the WiFi and Bluetooth are off as well. If your data plan for your watch is paired doing this should fix it. It just takes a lot of playing around with it
Hello. I can receive calls and make calls with cellular on. But unable to receive and send texts. I’ve spent about 3 hours with my carrier customer service and no one knows what’s going on. Please help me
I have exactly the same problem Series 9 and iPhone 11 Pro I can receive and send calls but no messaging (neither WhatsApp, iMessages or Even! Sent as Text Message) I’ve unpaired re-paired , and tried all the tricks mentioned and no joy ☹️… did you ever find a solution?
Then I’m sorry to say, you have the Bluetooth model- not the cellular one. There’s two models, a Bluetooth and Cellular version both with their respective purpose. I linked the cellular model in the description if you want one
Bluetooth doesn’t have to be turned off on the watch. Initially when i watched this video i thought that Bluetooth had to be off on the watch to connect to cellular and thats why RUclips videos like “watch only without phone” are always speaking through the Apple Watch speaker. But thats not the case. You can indeed have AirPods in, listening to Spotify/Music and receive a call while your phone isn’t nearby. It just takes a while for the watch to find the network because it’s trying every other option to connect to your phone in order to conserve battery life. Just be patient when your iPhone is in Airplane Mode and the Watch Wifi OFF. It will connect. *another thing to note (at least in Canada): Your plan needs to be a SHAREABLE plan. If it is not, the watch wont connect to your network. Infinite Shareable plans cost more than non-shareable. So it’s $15 + plus the cellular version of the device + shareable plan. The monthly costs add up quick. - And the watch cellular only works in Canada. When I travel it wont connect to other service providers towers.
Go to the Cellular Setting to make sure it's turned on. The alternative could be that the data plan isn't connected to your watch properly. In that case you'd need to call your cellular carrier to pair your IMEI to that data line.
When using standalone it limits you unfortunately. I hear someone say they were going to sign in with their main Apple ID attempting to avoid this issue. If I remember correctly, and this was a while ago now, it didn’t work out. But, it’s always worth a try to keep the health functions. You’d most likely need to redo everything if you go try to make that route work though.
That means that your IMEI isn't paired to a watch data line/plan. Call (or go in-store) your phone provider and tell them you need to pair an IMEI to your watch line. You can find your IMEI in your watch's settings. Let me know if that works!

Yep me too
I thought I was the only one doing the same 😂
2 months for me
The only video on the entire internet that actually helped me set up my new watch. Thank you from the bottom of my heart bro.
You're welcome bro. Glad I could help!

Yess! You’re welcome! Happy to help. It feels great when you figure it out.
Got my new Series 10 yesterday and faced the same issue. What fixed for me was turning off Low Power Mode and it worked like a charm! 😃
Another great trick, I forgot about that one! Thanks!
Great clip! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

My watch disconnected from the phone and it will make phone calls but it will not send or receive messages. Any tips?

So can I just select data when setting it up without the iPhone
No you have to have a phone to setup any watch
So in order for cellular to work on the watch, everything should be turned off on the phone and it should be disconnected, right?
Not the phone, everything should be turned off on the watch besides the cellular and should be disconnected.

Yess so glad I could help 🙌
If I did stand alone mode (family share) would my number on my apple watch change?
If you did standalone you’d have a new number unless you got your carrier to convert a number that you wanted to use to the standalone line.
I have added a new Apple ID, but I am still getting no connection for Cellular
Are you trying to get a standalone number separate from your main phone or pair it to your main phone number?
Maybe I’m just a dummy, but I just don’t understand how to do this. Turn Bluetooth off on my phone? Can’t set up the watch without Bluetooth being on.
If I can’t get past this step, how does one continue?
It was saying it’s not available in my country
Sorry not sure if I can help that..
Thank you
Question,, how come when I get a text on my iPhone ,, I don’t get it right away on my Apple Watch Ultra 1st Gen ?
That’s normal. It’s not lightning fast because it’s forwarding the message to your watch from your phone’s number.
If you’re not convinced you can restart both devices, it could make a difference.
i did this and it says no connection when i click set up cellular

Were you able to fix it?
My Apple Watch is a series ten and I don’t see the cellular white icon
Man I can’t keep mine connected to cellular…it’s frustrating
You could have a non-cellular model
Same model?

Your watch Maybe the Non Cellular one
This could be true as well
Then what do I do
@@OptionsFinest what do I do then
What do I do then
It didn’t work and I did the exact same steps
It could be that the eSIM isn’t paired to the IMEI of the watch. Check with your carrier.
Family sharing is a bad idea all the health functions quit working and a few other things also.

Has anyone successfully hacked the apple watch so it will work on unsupported countries?
My iwatch says “no sim”!!!
That means that your IMEI isn't paired to a watch data line/plan. Call (or go in-store) your phone provider and tell them you need to pair an IMEI to your watch line. You can find your IMEI in your watch's settings. Let me know if that works!
@@OptionsFinest
Do you know is this only works with ESim provider? Do the watch needs eSIM? Thanks for your answer.
@CoolGabor Yes, your watch for it to work requires a Data line eSIM.
