When attempting to add an apple watch SE cellular to an existing iPhone 15 I get an error that "An apple phone is required to connect with the selected wearable device" I have tried this with two separate iPhone and two separate watches. I even went to the apple store with a new watch and was unable to activate the device. When I view my phones online they clearly show that I have two apple 15's.

    Hi @devinewon, welcome to our community! If you're looking to share your cellular connection with your watch you will need to add Smartwatch access to your plan. Please give us a call at 1-833-224-6603​​​​​ to get that taken care of. Once added, you can visit Apple Watch Activation with Spectrum Mobile for further instructions.
