Check you don’t have your watch on silence., swipe up to check the bell isn’t in red

  • If your phone is unlocked you won’t receive them if mirroring from phone. It assumes you looked on your phone
  • Make sure your software is up to date on iPhone & watch.
  • Check the App Store on your phone to make sure the whats app is also up to date.

Begin by installing the WhatsApp messaging platform on your Apple iPhone.

Next go to your iPhone Settings and select Notifications then WhatsApp Messenger.

Then activate the Allow Notifications and Show in Notification Centre option.

Open the Watch app from your Apple iPhone, then open Notifications in the Watch app.

From here you can view all Apple Watch-supported apps, so scroll down until you see the WhatsApp Messenger app then activate the notification button.

You can now receive every WhatsApp notifications on your Apple Watch

Some WhatsApp features cannot be supported due to the Apple Watch’s space restriction and tiny screen.

This method essentially configures your Apple Watch to mirror the app's notification alerts from your iPhone.
