IWatch and iPhone

My wife called ATT to connect

her iwatch and iPhone . They told her she has to get a new phone number. Is this correct? I didn’t read that in any information before purchasing the iwatch…

They are wrong


The Cellular + GPS Apple Watch has an eSIM and shares the iPhone's phone number, and the carriers that support the Apple Watch charge a monthly fee. In the U.S. the fee is $10 per month. Here is a list of carriers that support the Apple Watch:

NOTE: AT&T may have an internal tracking number for the Apple Watch, but it is NOT a new account, it is an extension on the iPhone's account
