The Apple Watch gives Apple users endless options in a timepiece. The first watch was introduced in 2015; since then, there have been continuous innovations from the company. Apple Watches come with many options, especially with their bands. You’ll find Solacebands that give users many styles to choose from.
When you initially get your Apple Watch, configure it by pairing it with your iPhone. The Apple Watch can be seen as your iPhone’s assistant.
You can use these functions even if your phone isn’t nearby once the connection to your iPhone is complete. You might occasionally need to be plugged into a cellular or Wi-Fi network.
Make a Payment/ Use Apple Pay
If your iPhone and Apple Watch are connected already, you won’t need to have your phone to make a payment. Double-pressing the side button and holding the watch over the contactless sensor makes the payment.
Track Workouts and Activity
With the right data plan, you can wear your Apple Watch instead of taking your phone for a walk or a jog. The Apple Watch will record all activity regarding your steps and health information. The data can be accessed on the associated app on your phone when you get home.
Use Maps
You don’t have to worry about getting lost if your Apple Watch is connected to the internet, as you can still use Apple Maps. Using your watch is also safer than carrying around your iPhone.
Access Other Health Features
You can still access the following features without a cellular connection or Wi-Fi on your iPhone, although some can’t be accessed on some models.
- Check heart rate (all models)
- Measure your blood oxygen (From the Apple Watch Series 6)
- Track medications (From the Apple Watch Series 4)
- Take an ECG (From the Apple Watch Series 4)
- Track menstrual cycle (From the Apple Watch Series 1)

Send and Receive Text Messages
From your Apple Watch, you may send and receive text messages. Aside from that, you can additionally send and read emails. You can do all this while your phone isn’t near if you’re connected to a Wi-Fi or cellular network.
Listen to Your Favorite Music and Podcasts
You can listen to your favorite tracks while jogging, walking, or on a bus on your way back from work with Apple Music Voice. Once subscribed, all you’ll need is a pair of Bluetooth headphones for a better sound and to avoid annoying your neighbor.
