Q: Why can't notifications go my Apple watch AND my iPhone?
One of the main reasons I bought the watch was to avoid missed messages... especially when I'm at home.
What happens if I leave my unlocked phone on the table and walk into another room? The iPhone dings merrily to itself while my watch stays silent. It defeats the whole purpose of having the thing if I still need to reconcile my messages every time I pick up the phone.
It's probably my only significant pet peeve about IOS... Apple creates something clever (great) then demands that you use it (why?). I just want a simple setting where I can tell my watch when to ding.. that's all. Don't hide the feature because you think it might create too many notifications. Let the user decide.
Apple Watch, watchOS 3, iPhone 6S, Watch Series1 OS3
