Making and receiving calls on a cellular capable Apple Watch I can make outgoing phone calls on my cellular enabled Series 6 Apple Watch without having my iPhone with me. However, I cannot receive incoming calls on my Apple Watch unless I have my iPhone in close proximity. I've tried to troubleshoot this with both Apple Support and my cellular service provider and neither is able to find a reason for this condition. Hoping others have perhaps encountered this same situation. TIA for any help.

Apple Watch not able to make calls while on cellular or WiFi Have an SE cellular, I’m not sure when this started, I’m not able to receive calls while on cellular/WiFi nor I’m I able to send or receive texts. I can however receive calls. I’ve checked all my settings and can’t figure this out. Works fine when connected to the iPhone. Watch and iPhone are on the most current OS versions. Any thoughts on this. TIA

Are you using the cellular model, or does your iPhone have to be in reach, because your watch is GPS only?

If cellular, did you set up your eSIM correctly?
