I am replacing my gen. 1 watch with a gen. 4. If the watch gets Robocalls is there a way to block them if you don’t have your cell phone with you? I use an app. on my phone that works well. But how do people deal with this on their cellular serviced watch when a call don’t come through their phone?

I wish there was. I got 16 callers from the same number in less than 30 seconds yesterday.

Was this via your phone to your watch. Or do calls go straight to your watch's phone number? Arrrrgh! I've got my phone protected with the RoboKiller app.

I was hoping not worry about carrying my phone all the time (where RoboKiller lives). But if the watch, on its own, is going to get bombarded I may have to rethink this cellular serviced watch thing. I wonder if AT&T anti-spam service would cover a cellular phone?

BTW RoboKiller on my phone identified and/or stopped 56 Spam calls in the last 90 days. I need this app on my new watch. The spammers don't even waste their time anymore as no "live" person comes on the line until their "robot" know's they hooked a real person.
