Hi All

Just wondering if anybody else is having the same issue. I have 3 watches and have an active cellular connection. For a while now if I try to switch the cellular connection depending on which watch I am wearing, it just hangs at activating in the apple watch app on my 12 pro max, it also started happening on my 11 pro max before I got the 12 pro max. To get the cellular to activate on the watch I then have to re boot my phone which is annoying. It used to work fine and would activate basically straight away.

Thanks!

I was told this would not work, that a separate cellular plan was needed for each watch
that would be my assumption as well.
But i'd highly love to see and appreciate if this would work and the data plan would be switched to the currently active device automatically!
THANKS @Alicia1 for bringing this up!! Really am curious about the further course of this thread =)
 
It has been designed where you can disconnect one watch from your cellular plan and connect another, please see screen shots attached.

once all that is done, I just keep getting the spinning circle until a re boot which then shows this:

Never had to re boot the phone ever, it only started a couple of months ago.

It is frustrating. I was going to try to do a erase of all watches and phone and start again but that takes time.
