Q: Disabled notifications still showing up
Hello,
I got a new Apple Watch sunday and synced it with my iPhone.
The problem is that even after disabling Slack notifications in "My Watch > Notifications > Mirror iPhone alerts from > Slack" I'm still receiving those notifications on the watch.
It's very annoying since I get a lot of notifications. I tried the followings:
* Uninstall slack from the phone and reinstall it
* Enable again and disable again in the Watch app on the phone
* Rebooting the watch
I don't really know what to do next sadly.
Do you have any idea of what I may be doing wrong or if it's a bug on the watch side or on Slack's side?
Thanks!
Apple Watch Series 2, watchOS 3

Hi
The following steps may help:
- Toggle the Notifications setting on and then off again, allowing a few moments in between.
- Close the Watch app and then restart both your iPhone and your watch:
- To close the Watch app on your iPhone, double-click the Home button, then swipe up on the Watch app preview.
- Turn both devices off together, then restart your iPhone first;
- To close the Watch app on your iPhone, double-click the Home button, then swipe up on the Watch app preview.
- If the issue persists, it may help to unpair and re-pair your watch:
- The Watch app on your iPhone takes a backup of your watch automatically when unpairing via the app. Choose to Restore from Backup during set up. Most data and settings will be restored, with some exceptions (eg Apple Pay cards, passcode).
- Unpair your Apple Watch and iPhone - Apple Support
- Set up your Apple Watch - Apple Support
