TELUS Smartwatches
Apple Watch, Samsung Galaxy Watch with cellular connectivity.
A smartwatch with its own cellular connection can make calls, send messages and run maps without your phone anywhere nearby — which is the whole point for running, swimming and anyone who wants to leave the phone behind. TELUS supports Apple Watch and Android smartwatches on plans that pair with your existing number.

Cellular or Not — This Is the Decision
A non-cellular watch is cheaper and does everything a watch does while your phone is in range: notifications, fitness tracking, payments. A cellular watch adds the ability to work when the phone is not with you. If you run, cycle, swim or want a child to be reachable without giving them a phone, cellular is the reason to buy. If your phone is always in your pocket, it is not.
How the Watch Shares Your Number
A cellular watch pairs to your existing line and shares your number rather than needing its own, so calls and messages reach you on either device. Setting this up is a specific activation step rather than something that happens automatically when you unbox it — and it is the part people most often get stuck on at home. We do it in store.

- Shares your existing number rather than needing a second one
- Calls and messages reach the watch and phone together
- Activated and tested in store before you leave
Watches for Kids and for Older Family Members
Two of the better reasons to buy one have nothing to do with fitness. A cellular watch lets a child be reachable without carrying a phone, with far fewer distractions attached. For an older parent, fall detection and emergency calling from the wrist are genuinely valuable, and a watch is worn when a phone gets left on a table. Tell us if this is the purpose and the model recommendation changes.
Compatibility Is Worth Checking First
Apple Watch cellular works with iPhone, not Android, and some Android watches pair only with particular phones. This trips people up when the watch is a gift. Tell us which phone it will be used with before buying, or bring the phone in — a two-minute check avoids returning a watch that was never going to work.
TELUS Smartwatches: Cellular Freedom on Your Wrist
A cellular smartwatch lets you call, text, stream and track your day even when your phone is at home. At Bolt Wireless, an authorized TELUS and Koodo dealer, we carry the Apple Watch and Samsung Galaxy Watch with cellular connectivity, set up and ready to wear. Our advisors explain how each model works on TELUS so you choose the right fit for your lifestyle and budget.
NumberShare and Standalone Connectivity
With TELUS NumberShare, your smartwatch uses the same phone number as your smartphone, so calls and texts reach you on either device. That means leaving the house for a run, a commute or a quick errand without carrying your phone. We configure NumberShare and standalone connectivity in-store with same-day activation, so your watch is live before you walk out the door.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does a cellular smartwatch need its own phone number?
No. It pairs with your existing line and shares your number, so calls and messages reach both the watch and the phone. You do not manage a second number or a second contact for the same person.
Will an Apple Watch with cellular work with an Android phone?
No. Apple Watch requires an iPhone, and cellular does not change that. Some Android watches also pair only with particular phones. If the watch is a gift, tell us which phone it is for before buying — this is the most common reason a watch comes back.
Is a smartwatch a good idea for a child?
For many families, yes. A cellular watch keeps a child reachable without handing them a phone, with far fewer apps and distractions attached. We can set up the contacts and restrictions in store so it is ready before you leave.
Can I use it for calls while swimming or running without my phone?
That is what the cellular version is for. With cellular activated the watch works independently of the phone for calls, messages and maps. Without cellular, the watch needs the phone within range.
What does adding a watch to my plan cost?
It depends on your existing plan and current promotions, both of which change. Call us, message on WhatsApp or send the form and we will tell you what adding a watch to your specific account would cost.
