Yes. I was getting the messages with an alert triangle and didn't realize that was the informer app opening. It disappears when I tap it to try to read the message, then just the messenger window is open. I didnt realize what thet alert was until I manually opened the app on the watch and saw the messages. That's when I eas able to read the warning that the app did not have permission to read messages on the phone. There doesn't seem to be a way to enable that.

I ignore the message.  Also if you go into the app on your phone, you can select to have the typing box appear on top.  I just type my message and hit send.  Also you can change the time on your watch so that the screen goes blank after one minute so it gives you time to reply.

I'll try that. So you get that alert also? Does it strobe for you?

I think the only way to get rid of the alert is to purchase the app but unfortunately Google Play have removed the payment authority for this app because it is based in Russia.  I did contact the developer direclty and they gave me a link where I could pay for the app and they would send me a download for the paid version, but I was reluctant to do as it didn't seem to be a secure payment and I was worried they might get my bank card details and fraudently use it.
