Google FI + Apple Watch - it's working maybe?

I don't want to jinx it, but I left my Google Fi networked iPhone at home, and I'm able to send texts and get notifications on my watch.

Is anyone else noticing this? I haven't seen an announcement or anything.

Apple watch notifies me I can send my location via satellite When hiking I receive multiple notifications on my Apple watch 10 that I can share my location vis satellite. I know I can do this and would like to turn off receiving these messages multiple times when out hiking. In the winter when all bundled up in very cold temperatures it becomes a pain to access my watch to see the same message multiple times. Any help appreciated.

Text messages Alerts on iWatch Series 8 I am disappointed that I have not been able to get this issue resolved. I bought my watch in November, 22. I bought it with the celular option. I cannot get with 100% of the time my text messages alerts on my watch. TBH it is less than 1% of the time. I have the settings to mirror my iPhone. I get ALL other alerts for every single app on my watch except Text Alerts. I have no VPN, the watch is connected as a celular. (Same number as my iPhone) I spoke with support yesterday, they had me unpair and pair it again. That worked for about 2 hours, then I stopped getting text alerts. I have turned iMessages off and on. I have followed the steps on this Article - If you can’t send or receive messages on your Apple Watch Still not working, any other advise.

Are you sure it wasn't because you were on a previously used wi-fi? I have a wi-fi only watch and I have gotten notifications on my watch when I left my phone home but my watch was connected to the wifi.

Update, while it did work. I needed to take my watch off to charge and once I did that the spell wore off. :=(
