Apple watch I am looking into getting my daughter an apple watch. I don't know much about them. I know there are GPS ones and cellular ones. My question is for the GPS one. We use straight talk for our cell phone service. I am wondering if GPS can be used if her phone is with her but she IS NOT somewhere with wifi also, or does she have to both have her phone on her and be connected to wifi?
