I was given a series 3 recently that had been sitting in the lost and found for over a year at my father’s place of work. I don’t have an iPhone though to set it up with. It is stuck at the screen where I have to pair it with an iPhone. I do have an apple store near me, so I was wondering g if they would let me bring it in and set it up with one of their phones, just to get it started. I realize that after I unpaired it with an iPhone, ill lose functionality, but that is ok. If I end up liking this watch, I might consider getting a used iPhone to replace my Droid. Any thoughts?
Thank you all for the replies
The AppleWatch is developed as, sold as, and marketed as an accessory for the iPhone.
It’s is not a standalone device that can work without one.
