My Watch is set to mirror my phone in terms of Mail and Message notifications, but the Watch is not getting them. My texts and e-mails arrive on the Watch, but I do not get the notifications I expect. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Hey Guys, Anyone not getting notifications should try to switch off wrist detection in the general settings tab on the apple watch app on the iPhone. I have not been getting notifications of any sort until I switched that feature off, I am now getting all my notifications. I tried everything all sorts of resets and this is what fixed it for me.
If this fix does work for you then I believe that your infra red sensor which detects your wrist is not working properly.
This totally did it for me, I turned off wrist detection and I started getting all my notifications. Before I would only get them when my watch was awake!
If you have a blue half moon symbol at top of the watch face, try turning 'Do Not Disturb' off on your iPhone.
Thank you very much... it really worked for me...
Thanks, this worked for me, although I don't think the infra red is the issue but my tattooed arm that causes confusion.
TATOOS AND HAIR IS A SENSOR BLOCK ....TURN YOUR WRIST DETECTION OFF THANX
Sorry, I don't find a ckover to mute in my iWatch app?
if you switch off wrist detection, does t that eat up your battery?
Thank god for your help I was going mad thinking I'd wasted £400 turning off wrist detection worked
