Q: Notifications not being shown
I had this question yesterday, which I marked answered a bit too early here: Notifications pushed to screen.
The issue persists. After 24 hours using the Apple Watch, I did have received notifications, they didn't show up in the screen nor I got any haptic notification. Those are set to the maximum level of vibration.
I have seen the red dot, my iPhone was locked and away and the Watch didn't notify anything. I have read a lot of posts here and other sources mentioning the same issue, recommending shutting the iPhone, iPad and Watch down and then turning them back on. I have tested several settings combinations with no joy. If I switch off the Watch, they get fine as they did to the iPhone or Mac.
Some of the things I have tried:
- Setting the apps from Mirror to Custom and specify notifications there
- Turning off/on Cover to Mute (I had it off)
- Restarting the iPhone, iPad, Mac and Watch
- Turning off/on Wrist Detection
The only thing I can think of is that I'm using a Mac where I use all the apps which should be sending notifications, like Messages, Slack, Phone, Calendar or Telegram, but not using those apps at the same time, so notifications got through the iPhone but using a Mac may be the cause for not getting to the Watch?
Some of the threads I have checked:
I am not getting notifications on my apple watch
Haptic not working on Apple watch messages
Is there anything I'm obviously missing?
