What is MultiSIM for the Apple Watch?

MultiSIM enables you to use your mobile plan on devices like the Apple Watch that support eSIM technology. It eliminates the need for a separate mobile number, allowing your Apple Watch to receive calls, messages, and notifications, even if your iPhone is out of reach or powered off.

The new service is suitable for customers who use an iPhone and an Apple Watch (GPS + Cellular) and links both devices to the same phone number and subscription. Multisim can be ordered from October 29 and will be available on Friday, November 5.

With Multisim, T-Mobile is meeting a specific wish of the Dutch consumer. Until today, connectivity on an Apple Watch in the Netherlands was only possible with a paired iPhone nearby. T-Mobile is the first provider in the Netherlands to change this and make it possible for customers to go out without their iPhone in their pocket and still be able to make calls and use the internet via their Apple Watch. All bundled on one monthly invoice.

Using Tmobile multisim (eSIM)

T-Mobile Multisim connects the iPhone and Apple Watch (GPS + Cellular) utilizing eSim – electronically built-in SIM cards—to the same telephone number. A call arrives on both devices at the same time until it is answered on one of the devices. Data can be used on both devices simultaneously, so customers can watch a series on their iPhone while answering messages via their Apple Watch.

Always connected

Leo Hensen, Director of Marketing & Communications at T-Mobile Netherlands, says,

“Thanks to T-Mobile Multisim, consumers can finally make full use of their Apple Watch and always stay connected in the way that suits them.”

Multisim subscriptions can be ordered from Friday, October 29, in combination with the cellular model of the Apple Watch Series 7 for customers with a Go subscription. Both will be available on Friday, November 5. Customers who already own an Apple Watch cellular model can also take out a Multisim subscription starting November 5. A Multisim subscription costs 5 euros per month.
