Apple Watch Connection To Fiesta?

I'm thinking of buying the Apple Watch which, as most people know, requires your iPhone to be present for full functionality but, I'm wondering if it needs to be connected to your Fiesta when your iPhone is already connected?

There will obviously be other similar query's such as Bluetooth and does it need to be on in the car and I would welcome any input from members who already have the Apple Watch?

    Hi,

    I don't think there's any advantage to connecting an apple watch to your car as your phone has everything on it plus you need your phone to be present.

    I may be wrong though,

    Hi, I don't particularly want to connect an apple watch to my Fiesta; I was just wondering if the watch would try and connect and, if so, was it really necessary to have it connected?

    Hi sorry I miss understood, unless you search for it I can't see it connecting and it will connect to the last device as far as I know.

    No, it doesn't need to be connected to the car. Your iPhone will remain paired to the car as normal, and the Apple Watch uses Bluetooth LE to pair with the iPhone. Hope this helps?
