Q: iPhone alarm messages missing on watch

With the new iOS 10 and watch 3.0 alarm messages that I have set on my phone no longer appear on the watch. This is totally annoying because now when the alarm goes off on the watch I have no idea what it's for without checking the phone. This worked perfectly on earlier watch versions and so it's mystifying as to why someone would think it was a good idea to eliminate that from the latest software.  I have talked to the Genius Bar folks at the Apple store and they agree it's been changed and our equally baffled as to why.  I use many alarms to keep me on schedule during the day and I want the watch to display what the alarm is for. Hopefully Apple will fix this in the future release. Does anybody know the status on this?
