Apple Watch not showing notification when read by Siri on AirPods

Hi all,

I'm having some problems with notifications on my Watch Series 8. It is paired with an iPhone X and all softwares are updated to latest versions.

When I have my AirPods paired to the iPhone and get some notifications ready by Siri, I'm not able to see these notifications on my watch and they are not either stored in the notifications center on the watch, but I can correctly see them on iPhone.


Is this expected? I tried to check the settings but I'm not able to find anything related to this scenario.


Thanks for any help!

Hi Erny93,


Thanks for coming to Apple Support Communities for help today.


This sounds like expected behavior when Announce Notifications is switched on. You can see more about that here: Listen and respond to notifications with AirPods and Beats headphones on Apple Watch


"Turn on Announce Notifications


  1. Put your paired headphones in or on your ears, depending on the kind of headphones you have.
  2. Pair them with Apple Watch.
  3. Open the Settings app  on your Apple Watch.
  4. Go to Siri > Announce Notifications, then turn on Announce Notifications.


You can also open the Settings app on your iPhone, go to Notifications > Announce Notifications, then turn on Announce Notifications."


You can always leave Product Feedback and the right team may be able to review it.


Have a fantastic day!
