The process for Apple Watch to work with Android smartphones will have the following requirements:

  1. An Apple Watch has been unlocked with LTE
  2. Unlocked Android smartphone
  3. iPhone 6 and above have been unlocked
  4. A tool to get a SIM card.

Note : If you are unsure whether or not the Apple device you are using is unlocked, you can contact Apple or your service provider for more information. If you are unsure about your Android device, you should also contact your service provider.

You also need to be on a supported mobile network to use Apple Watch.

How to connect Apple Watch and Android phone
