Hi. Text & Email Notifications not showing on watch?

I'm having same issues. Does not all seem to be synced quite right with phone. Mails are there if I manually check but not getting a notification

I had it working earlier but has packed up again

Ok, I have the same problem, but if I toggle iMessage ON/OFF on the iPhone, Apple Watch asks for a password, so something is happening here.

But I can't find where I have to type the password though

same me here all set up with notifications enabled but not being alerted on the watch, but when flick down the notification is there.

unpaired the watch and set up again but still nothing

noticed if I'm in the messages app then I get alerted but not if I'm doing anything else

I'm not getting them either. Since I'm at work now I'll just watch all the videos tonight and try to figure out what is going on when I come home. Unless someone else figures it out first and posts it here. :-)

I remember reading another thread somewhere, if your using your iPhone or iPad you won't get notifications on your apple watch. Apparently this is to conserve battery.

I think John991 is right - if you are looking at your phone when the email or message comes in, it won't notify you on your watch. If your phone is in your pocket (or off) when the message comes in, your watch should then tap you and you get the notification. KVB71 or others on the list, how are you testing if you get the notifications or not?

Do you think there is a time set since you last looked at your phone. Mine was locked but probably used it 2 mins before?

The Apple Watch User Guide seems to be the best resource available (so far) - try looking at " Choose which notifications you get. " from the UG page > http://help.apple.com/watch/#/apde978ebff5

I'm not sure about the timing question. If you have your phone locked, and have someone send you an Message or text message, does your watch notification happen where you can feel it? If you can't, maybe try power cycling both your watch and phone and then try again to see if that works.

Having the same issue. The problem seems to be with imessage and mail. My WhatsApp notifications come through right away. iMessage takes for ever to notify me. When I check my iPhone I can see the message on the lockscreen but I did not get any notification. Unlocking the iPhone and opening the messages app sometimes pushes the notification to my watch. Strange...

Oh well, version 1.0. Waiting for a fix.

Well, my phone has been beside me but off. I've gotten a few texts but no tap. I noticed I did have the red dot on the screen...so maybe I just didn't feel the tap? who knows. Do we think the phone has to not be on mute? I don't know. I know the settings say "mirror iPhone" and I keep my phone on mute when I am in the office. Oh well, I don't know. I will take it off mute and make my roommate text me tonight. haha We'll see if that does anything I guess.

I think I am making some progress here. My problem was just for emails. For me, on my iphone under settings, notifications, I had turned off email long ago and forgotten about it. Turning this back on, then disabling and enabling email notifications in the apple watch app seems to have helped.
