My Galaxy Watch 4 Classic has stopped receiving phone calls

[Anonymous]

This behaviour began about 4 weeks ago. My watch (not LTE) is connected to my S22 Ultra, it receives all active notifications, it receives SMS. I can send SMS, Messenger and  WhatsApp texts and I can make calls, weirdly it does not receive calls (not even a notification that a call is coming in).

Bluetooth - > Settings show the watch as connected for calls

Wear App ->Notifications->Phone Apps "Phone notifications will be mirrored on your watch" ->Phone is On (blue)

Neither the phone or watch have do not disturb on.

Did you check your Wear app notification settings to make sure the notifications from tje phone did not get turned off somehow? Wear app/watch settings/notifications/app notifications. Scroll down to phone and make sure the slider is on.

Under App notifications->Watch apps there is no Phone option, under Phone Apps there is a Phone option that has the slider to the right and is coloured blue

that's the one and it appears it is already on.  I suggest sliding it off and then on again to see if anything changes.  You can also go to settings/app/phone/storage and clear the app cache, in case some old data is blocking the notifications. Did it ever work, or is this a sudden change?

Have you tried clearing the watch's cache partition?

Thanks relaud, yes it was working fine until recently. I don't know if this is the actual solution but the function is working properly after I turned off every setting I could find that related to it, rebooted both the watch and phone, turned all the related settings back on. Phew!

As long as it works now.  Sometimes things get confused, and turning off the setting and turning it back on resets it.
