Hi -
I just got my kid an Apple Watch as a stand alone that pairs with my phone.
when we try to download apps (eg Spotify), the watch says “requires iPhone). Yet, when we go in the Watch app on my phone, there’s no option for apps or approval of download.
please help!
Hi vickyh2016,
We'll be glad to address this with you further. With an Apple Watch set up via Family Setup, not all apps and features may be available. This is due to many apps requiring a companion iPhone. More information on that here: Set up Apple Watch for a family member
As the page notes, this will also include some Apple apps and features, such as the Podcasts app for example.
Cheers.
can’t download apps on my kid’s watch
