twitzgall Posted October 28, 2017 #2 Share Posted October 28, 2017 You need to enter in your folio and DOB on a carnival landing page to get access to the wifi...so unless you were connected to your iPhone, it wouldn't work. I have used my iPhone to connect to the internet though (Carnival Hub for instance) and notifications do show up on my Apple Watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a Hub app for watch, or it is just getting the notifications? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coevan Posted October 28, 2017 #4 Share Posted October 28, 2017 don't think you understand what an App is. If it's an IOS device, you go to App store and download any App Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But no, there is no specific app for Apple Watch...only receives notifications Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firemanbobswife Posted October 28, 2017 #6 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Since you can’t run the HubApp on your watch, you would still need to be in close proximity to your cell phone. I used my Apple Watch on the ship when I carried my cell phone with and got notifications just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn’t the Apple Watch 3 an independent #? If so, you should be able to use without your phone with WiFi like you can at home.

Sent from my iPad using Forums Right, but you don’t get cell service out in the ocean. At least not for free. If there’s no app on the Apple Watch to connect to WiFi which is why you would need the Hub App in this case on your phone, then it would have to work off of the cellular network just like the iPads that are able to do that.

sanger727 Posted October 28, 2017 #10 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Not used an Apple Watch so don’t know exactly how it works. However, just have a general note about non-phone/computer devices connecting to WiFi. I bought a nice camera for a trip and was excited that it could connect to WiFi and transmit pictures to my phone for posting. What I discovered, however, is that without a true internet browser, it couldn’t connect at a lot of places. Many many public WiFi networks now require more than just a password login. You need to log in but you don’t really connect until you go to a certain webpage and agree to their terms and conditions and/or put a name/room number in. Can’t do this without an internet browser. So, just a general FYI; not sure if it will apply to the Apple Watch or not Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
