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.LINKS MENTIONEDThe case I use https://elrowindustries.com

Fob strap (cheaper than a case, still allows one hand usage) https://amzn.to/4eMYfSk
