How I Use Apple Watch as My Only Phone

I have been using a standalone Apple Watch as my phone for the past two years. In this video I’ll show why Apple Watch is the ultimate dumb phone, the limitations and how to overcome them, and two different ways to use the Watch as a dumb phone.

US Mobile is the carrier I use because they have the simplest standalone Apple Watch plans. I said in the video I have no affiliation with them. But then I found this referral code that saves you $25, so, full disclosure, this is an affiliate link: https://www.usmobile.com/referrals?referrer=CB54E65D&name=Reagan&utm_campaign=monster_referral
