Hi everyone. Please help an old girl.. I am looking to purchase an apple watch with gps and cellular. I am just wondering if I can use an apple watch on Fizz. I have read on here that it looks like it might work if I use bluetooth. But have no idea what that means..Or do I not need cellular? Thanks Victoria

    **The short answer is yes, you can absolutely use an Apple Watch with your Fizz plan.** However, there's an important distinction to understand, especially since you're looking at the GPS + Cellular model.

    Currently, **Fizz does not support the cellular functionality of the Apple Watch.** This means that even if you purchase the GPS + Cellular version, you won't be able to activate a separate cellular plan for the watch itself through Fizz.

    ### What "Using it with Bluetooth" Means

    This is where the "using it with Bluetooth" part comes in, and it's how you'll be using your Apple Watch with Fizz. Here's a simple breakdown:

    * **Your Apple Watch connects to your iPhone via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.** Think of it as a wireless tether. As long as your iPhone is nearby (typically within about 30 feet), your Apple Watch will "borrow" its connection.
    * **You can still make and receive calls, send and receive text messages, get notifications, and use apps on your watch.** The key is that your iPhone is handling the actual communication with the Fizz network.
    * If your watch and phone are not connected via Bluetooth but are on the same Wi-Fi network, you can still do most of these things.

    So, for all practical purposes, a GPS + Cellular Apple Watch on Fizz will function just like a GPS-only model.
