It seems to work correctly for me but I can only send iMessage to myself, not old style SMS for testing. Can you confirm, are you seeing this in SMS or iMessage, or both?


The only thing I can suggest is to forced Reset your Apple Watch and see if that improves things. Press and hold both the Digital Crown and the Side Button then release when the Apple appears, and let the watch reboot.
