My Fitbit Charge 2 is no longer receiving text or call notifications from my iPhone 14 after the iOS 26.2. The charge 2 receives calendar notifications. Anyone else experiencing this? I'm now on iOS 26.3 with the same results.
iPhone 14, iOS 26
RESOLUTION:
While following the troubleshooting steps to "Forget This Device" in my iPhone's Bluetooth settings, I was immediately prompted to "Allow Charge 2 to Receive Your iPhone Notifications." This permission request appeared while I was attempting to disconnect the device rather than during the pairing process, which felt counterintuitive. Receiving this prompt while attempting to disconnect rather than pair the device caused significant confusion. The issue was eventually resolved by cycling through the pairing and "forgetting" steps multiple times until the permissions synchronized correctly.

Prior to updating, I'm now getting text message notifications. Not sure why or what I did. I thought it was Focus/Work/Smart Activations was "On". I turned it off, tested a text and I received the notification. I then turned Smart Activations back on, executed a test notification and I still received a text notification. Updating to iOS 26.3.1 currently
Try updating to iOS 26.3.1
