Echo or Watch Link?
Do I need Echo or Watch Link?
It depends on how you plan to use your Apple Watch® with fitness equipment. Use Echo if you want to connect to Bluetooth fitness apps on a separate device, connect to AirPods, or are comfortable using your iPhone. Use Watch Link if you have only one device, need ANT+, want a direct connection, or prefer not to carry your phone.
