Resolved Anyone else use 2 watches?

[MareLuce]

2 Series 11 watches, both running WatchOS 26.0.2, both with ATT cellular activated.

Problem: I could not make calls from either watch. Both would just say "call failed"

Called ATT.
The agent said he "disconnected and reconnected" each Apple Watch phone # from my ATT account.

This kinda fixed it. From one watch, I now see this before I make a call. The other makes calls like normal.
Anyone else in this situation?
Any suggestions? (does it really have to be this way each time I make a call from the second watch?)

Seems like someone having 2 watches and being able to make calls from either watch would not be a rare use case.

I'm surprised that this isn't easier too. I was thinking that you could unpair and re-pair each watch each day/week/whatever and just "move" the one plan between them. But even then, that's 30 minutes each time(?).

Seems that this should be easier. I don't have two cellular watches but I was considering it and there just didn't seem to be a spectacularly quick and easy way to make it work from my 5 minutes of googling..

@Howard2k, it used to be easier.

I only saw this behavior starting with the Series 11.

Have you contacted Apple support about this?

Do you have both connected to cellular at the same time, if so that might be your issue. I have 2 AWs both on the same plan but I only ever use one device at a time, both work fine with no issues that you have described.

No. Same as you, I just use 1 watch at a time. The first is charging while I wear the second.

I’ll give it a try - I’m based in Denmark 🇩🇰, so it might be different from carrier to carrier?
Can’t find any info from apple about it 🥴

I used to alternate between my S10 and black U3. It would interrupt my S10’s optimized charging.

Yup, ultra 3 when I’m at home and for the 3 weeks I’m offshore at work I have a 2nd gen SE.
