Hi Lexus351,


Thank you for posting to Apple Support Communities.


We're happy to help. You've referenced a great article. When you receive a notification on Apple Watch, you can tap it to see more options.


You can also see any unread notifications, in which you will need to turn the Digital Crown to scroll. This is expected behavior. You can refer to section "How to see all your unread Apple Watch notifications" from the article you referenced previously:


  1. "Touch and hold the top of the watch face to open Notification Center. You can do this from any screen.
  2. Wait for Notification Center to show, then swipe down. 
  3. Turn the Digital Crown to scroll, or swipe up and down on the watch face.
  4. Tap the notification to read it. To read grouped notifications, tap a stack, then tap a notification.
  5. To delete a notification, swipe left, then tap the delete button."


Let us know if this doesn't help explain what you're experiencing.


Take care.
