Hey I just bought the Apple Watch series 3 watch and I been trying to set up text messaging and email but it want let me. I watch YouTube videos on how to do so but I don’t have the same display as they have so it very confusing. Like they have allow alert but my doesn’t say any of that. So how would I approach this and fix it or is it a bug?

On your Apple Watch App on your iPhone (My Watch Setting)....scroll down to "Messages " And tap on "Mirror my iPhone" then tap on "Allow Notifications"...then under "Alerts" turn on "Sound" and "Haptic" the other settings will turn on by default.. For your email tap on "Mail" then "Mirror my iPhone" and "Allow Notifications" ...next scroll down to the email or emails you want on your Watch and turn them on.
