I bought a new Apple Watch for my wife. She has a 1st gen iPhone SE (she just loves it and doesn’t want to upgrade). The watch won’t work with her phone - obviously something I should have checked into before purchasing. Is there anything I can do? Like maybe swap the watch out for an earlier model?

    It looks like anything from Series 7 down will work with your wife’s SE with iOS 15.

    The small print from the Apple Watch Series 7:

    Apple Watch Series 7 requires an iPhone 6s or later with iOS 15 or later.

    iPhone SE was released after the iPhone 6s and can take iOS 15 so you should be good
