    Hey there Scr1be,

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.

     

    It sounds like there's an issue receiving notifications in some apps on your iPhone 6s and Apple Watch. If you haven't already, try taking a look at the article linked below and running through the general troubleshooting tips that it provides.

    Use Notifications on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support

    If you don't see notifications for a specific app

    To get notifications, you need to be connected to a Wi-Fi or cellular network. If you’re not getting notifications for a specific app, try these steps:

    1. Make sure that the app supports notifications. Go to Settings > Notifications, select the app, and make sure that Notifications are turned on.
    2. Make sure that you’re signed in to your Apple ID on your iOS device. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores and enter your Apple ID and password.
    3. Make sure that Do Not Disturb is turned off. Go to Settings > Do Not Disturb and tap Manual if it's turned on.
    4. If you’ve recently installed an app or restored from a backup, open the app to start getting notifications.

    Notifications use Wi-Fi only when a cellular connection is unavailable. Firewalls and proxy servers might affect your ability to receive notifications. Get help using Apple Push Notification service (APNs)
