I have a two year old Apple watch (sorry I don't know the model) that does not have phone capability unless my iphone is nearby. I recently upgraded to a watch that does have stand alone phone capability and I'm looking to give my old Apple watch to my brother who has a Tracfone. Will his Tracfone phone let him connect his Apple watch? Thanks, sibleygulf
It's not clear if you mean Tracfone the company or if you mean a particular model of phone. Your brother will need an iPhone to set up the watch. Since the watch is not a cellular watch, the carrier doesn't matter as the watch never connects to the carrier.
If he doesn't have an iPHone, the other option is for you to set up the watch for him, though this will mean there will be some features that don't work.

Tell him to come to the forums if he has questions!
Thanks so much! My brother has an IPhone that he got through Tracfone. Glad to hear that he'll be able to use the watch I sent him.
Apple Watch Compatibility with Tracfone?
