Adding apps to a child’s Apple Watch under family sharing
I am having an issue adding any apps to my 10 year old son’s Apple Watch. He doesn’t have an iPhone, so it is paired to mine. I do not have an Apple Watch so the only watch that comes up on my Watch app is his. It is listed as a family watch under the “all watches” section. When I tap his watch to manage it from my iPhone I am unable to install any apps (like Spotify) that are on my phone on his. When I try to add the app from his watch there is a message that says “requires iPhone”.
My wife has an Apple Watch paired to her iPhone and is able to add a number of apps that are on her phone to her watch through the Watch app. Why am I unable to add Apps to my son’s watch?
