I have a series 5 watch paired to my At&t 11 pro max. Is it easy to pair it to another iPhone (XS, XR with service, iPhone X, 8 WiFi only)?? Would it affect apps already on my watch etc? Thanks!!
Got a tip for us?

You can have 3 watches on one phone, but only have a watch on one phone.
And before someone asks why, it is because this is how Apple wants it.
Watch is a slave. iPhone is a master. A master can have many slaves but a slave can only have one master.
you could unpair you watch, and pair to another phone.
it's not a quick process, at least 30 minutes to an hour to make it happen.
it would also eat a lot of battery.
you could then reverse the process, and you can restore from backup, so the watch is like it was before you started.
you wouldn't want to do this on a regular basis.
