IPhone 11 + Apple watch 7, how to ?

[Volleyball]

I have Iphone 11 and physical sim from PM.

(I like to keep my current  PM plan)

Can I activate the esim in the Iphone 11 with Lucky or Kodoo to have 2. phone number and use it together with Apple watch 7 ?

Thanks for help

@Volleyball    Sorry, PM doesn't offer ESIMs.  You'll need a physical PM SIM for use in a compatible phone.

Edit:  Nvd the above, misread...if the other carriers offer ESIMs then yes you can use that in your Apple watch.

Hello dabr

I currently use my IPhone 11 with physical sim from PM.

My question is if I can activate my esim with Kodoo Lucky to gave an second phone number on my phone and use it together with the Apple Watch 7

@Volleyball yes you can use eSIM from Koodo on iphone 11 and both the notifications will come on your connected watch. 

Not tested with PM and koodo myself but same device have been tested for one physical and one eSIM.

@Volleyball     Unfortunately, I don't have a lot of knowledge about Apple products or ESIMS...   There are other users here who will be able to provide you with a more knowledgeable response, so just wait until you hear from others who have more experience with both ESIMs and IPhones.

@Volleyball 

your iphone 11 service with public mobile now right, so you need to open another line from Kodoo or Lucky because the use eSIM service, and also you need to keep your service with public mobile but you have to do call forwarding from iphone 11 to apple watch.

Yes you absolutely can do this. But keep in mind that both the eSIM and the physical SIM cannot have an active data connection at the same time, since the iPhone 11 is not a "dual-active" phone.

HI @0PX9O4   But both SIM can still be used together?  We can setup something  like using voice on the PM and Data on Koodo?

Yes you can, and for that matter this applies even on a lot of the higher-end Android phones that support eSIM. But not all phones will be able to maintain two ACTIVE connections at the same time. An active connection is a 3G phone call (VoLTE uses data anyway), or an data connection where something is actively being downloaded or uploaded.
