    iMessage Compatible Smart Watches

    I tried an Apple Watch 3 and I couldn't get service when my phone was not with me. I am looking for a smart watch that I can respond to iMessages and other text messages without needing my phone in range. Do I have any options besides the Apple Watch (which didn't work for me anyways)?

    So my girlfriend is abroad and currently has no mobile internet and most of the time she'll keep me up-to-date when she leaves the hotel.

    Why can't I force a backup of iMessage to iCloud?

    Why is there no way to force a backup of iMessages to iCloud? I can click "backup now" to back up the rest of my phone, why can't I do the same for iMessage? It would be very helpful since this feature seems to have stalled from the outset and is no longer uploading any of my conversations to...
