Apple Watch for kids in Sweden, please cancel exclusivity with Telia

Question

Apple Watch for kids in Sweden, please cancel exclusivity with Telia

Please Apple, cancel the exclusivity deal with Telia in Sweden for Apple watch for kids. You are hurting your brand since they:

1) Don't know how to set up only an apple watch account without a main account

2) Don't know how to set up a main accound on a kids iPhone and then an apple watch cellular connection on the kids apple watch

3) But we can't get another cell provider since there's an exclusivity deal with Telia for kids account.

I've spoken to both Apple support and Telia support for *months*, please for the love of your brand, get a different deal.

Sorry to hear about your bad experience with your local carrier.

Maybe this article can help a bit:

Set up Apple Watch for a family member - Apple Support

Ställa in en Apple Watch åt en familjemedlem - Apple-support (SE)

Apple can not be reached by posting in these user to user communities.

You should let Apple know directly about this issue by using the Feedback link, as this is the only way to reach them.

To the best of my knowledge, Apple does not have exclusive contracts with any carrier (well not since the original iPhone had an exclusive deal with AT&T in the U.S. for the first few years).

The carrier has to want to support the Apple Watch. Apple has rules the carrier has to agree to, and I'm sure there is some money exchanged.

If you only have a single carrier that wants to support Apple Watch Family Sharing in your country, that is because the other carriers in your country do not want to make a deal with Apple.

And besides feedback. you can also contact Apple Support.
