Since its introduction into the system in 2014, the Apple Watch has served as an essential part of its wearer’s daily life. Originally designed to serve as a Health and wellness tracker for the wearer, Apple has long since come far, introducing other features and perfecting the design with the release of each new model.
By the time it got to Apple Watch Series 3, Apple had instigated other necessary features asides from its health-related features like the Heart Rate Tracker, counts steps feature, gym features among others.
Even though the Apple Watch still does not support social media messaging apps like WhatsApp, Facebook, Snapchat and Instagram, it can offer a bit of service along that line (asides from sending you notifications from those apps of course).
Does Apple Watch series 3 receive texts?
Yes, the Apple Watch Series 3 can send abs receive texts; all models of the Apple Watch can do so. You can even use it to make and receive calls when your iPhone is nearby and connected to a cellular network and, potentially, also under other certain circumstances, say your iPhone happens to be off.
This is indeed a great feature that makes your Apple Watch a bit more independent from your iPhone; offering you great services and features that first would have only been found on your iPhone.
