Hey Oriontbo,


Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities! We understand messages are not syncing up properly between your Apple Watch and iPhone. Let's help.


It sounds like you've got Messages in iCloud enabled (Use Messages in iCloud) which should keep your entire message history updated and available on all your devices automatically.


Are both devices connected to Wi-Fi with internet working too? If so, we would recommend turning off Messages in iCloud, restarting both devices, then turn Messages in iCloud back on. This will refresh everything and re-sync.


If that doesn't help, you'll want to get this issue reported to Apple directly. You can reach them via this link: Get Support



Best regards.
