Vodafone Idea Finally Launches eSIM Service to Apple Watch Cellular Users

Telecom operator Vodafone Idea has finally launched eSIM or cellular service for Apple Watch (GPS+Cellular) in India. Starting June 12, 2020, Apple Watch users in India can avail cellular service from Vodafone Idea as well. So far, only Bharti Airtel and Reliance Jio are providing the eSIM service to Apple Watch users in India. This move will give customers the freedom to leave their phone behind and stay connected with just their Apple Watch. However, do make a note that this service is available for Vodafone Postpaid customers, including Enterprise Postpaid, in select circles (Mumbai, Delhi, Gujarat). Vodafone Idea stated that the service would continue to be expanded to additional circles in the coming weeks.
