Is there any way to get notifications to pop up on both your phone and your apple watch?

I'd like my notifications to pop up on both my phone and my watch. Right now it's just one or the other. Is there any way to do this? Thanks!

Apple Watch Series 3

The way notifications work if you have an iPhone and a Watch: If the iPhone is unlocked, the notifications come to the phone. If the phone is locked and the Watch is unlocked, the notifications go to the watch. If the watch and the phone are both locked, the notifications go to the phone. So, the short answer is that you can't do what you want.
