Hello,

 

I ordered a Galaxy watch for my gf and it came yesterday. After we got it setup with her phone we noticed text messages were not coming through to it and there was no messaging app. We searched all of the apps and cant find one to install. Why is this? Is it cause she has a Huawei P20 and not a Samsung phone?

 

Thanks,

Carson

Go into the wear app on your phone,

Settings-notifications - manage notifications

 

Scroll down to find your message app and make sure the slide toggle is on.

Having the same issue, no texts showing up.  I've factory reset and reinstalled the app on my phone.  Made sure I clicked allow on everything.  The fix isn't working and it sounds like this is a common issue.  Considering returning the watch if I can't get this to work.
