Not getting vibration notifications on Apple Watch.

A few days ago I noticed my watch wasn’t vibrating when messages were received. And my stats aren’t being recorded in the Healthline app.

Apple Watch Series 6, watchOS 7

Assuming you haven't modified any of the settings, the first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This should result in no loss of data. It deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
