My son has an applewatch se and no smart phone. His watch is his phone. Verizon said he can stream music with his watch not owning a phone but how? Please advise my son is 19 and developmentally disabled and was really lookin forward to this. He can't own a smart phone due to falling victim of online scammers
Apple Watch Series 8
Thanks for reaching out Mclarke1,
It sounds like you want your son to be able to use his Apple Watch without a paired iPhone. We can help.
Let's first start by making sure you have been able to Set up Apple Watch for a family member. These steps may have been completed with Verizon if you purchased the Apple Watch through them. Once we've confirmed the Apple Watch has been set up, then you can check out these steps to Play music on Apple Watch.
Hope that helps.
Take care.

Yes but he needs an iphone to set it up first, either his own iphone or paired to a family member's iphone as described by AdvisorMP

This is true, But I was giving a general perspective on how the music can be stream continuously if that is indeed what his son wanted. Once the understanding of how music can be streamed continuously. Then the process of pairing it to an iPhone can be done.
