- Open the Watch app on your iPhone.
- Follow the prompts to pair and select Myself to set up your watch.
- Continue to follow the prompts to activate and use AT&T NumberSync® on your watch.
In addition to making calls, you can also get notices and listen to your smartphone’s voicemail on the watch.
Want device-specific instructions? Go to Device Support, select your device, and enter NumberSync in the search field. If you’re still having trouble, you can get help with NumberSync issues.
Connect to our network
Apple Watch works in three different modes:
- Bluetooth®: The watch uses Bluetooth to communicate with your iPhone. When you make or receive a call on the watch, your iPhone makes or receives the call but sends it to the watch. The iPhone also shares its data with the watch using Bluetooth. Turning on airplane mode or turning off Bluetooth doesn’t stop this connection.
- Wi-Fi®: When outside Bluetooth range, the watch connects to known Wi-Fi networks for data and to make and receive calls
- Cellular: If the watch has a wireless plan and isn’t near Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, it will use our network for calls and data.
FYI: You can get text messages and iMessages on your watch. For text messages, make sure your iPhone is turned on and connected to our network or Wi-Fi. For iMessages, your phone doesn’t have to be turned on to receive messages on the watch. Just make sure iMessage is enabled.
