Do I have to add a new line to add an Apple Watch to my Verizon account?
You don't need to add a line for your Apple Watch if you plan on only using Wi-Fi, using Number Share - Mobile to share your main smartphone's number with up to 5 connected devices, or if you bring your new Apple Watch to an existing line of service (i.e., change the device on the line from a phone to the connected device). If you can't do one of the above, you need to add a line of service and current connected device plan so your device can access the Verizon mobile network. -Deb
