Why don't I have CELLULAR option on my Apple watch app. When I click on My watch icon on the app.

I am trying to follow the instructions on setting up cellular plan. The help says:

  1. On your iPhone, open the Apple Watch app.
  2. Tap the My Watch tab, then tap Cellular.
  3. Tap Set Up Cellular or Add a New Plan. If you didn't add your first plan during setup, you can add it here.


I dont have Cellular option to follow through he instructions.

Apple Watch Series 6, watchOS 9

Most versions of Apple Watch since Series 3 are available as GPS-only model, or GPS+Cellular model. Are you sure your Apple Watch is the cellular version?


As a quick check, the Digital Crown of the cellular model will have a red ring. If it is all one colour without the red ring you have the GPS-only model.
