OK, every so often I get a notification from tge Wearable app that tgere has not been a backup in some large number of days.

BUT, when I check, I find it was backed up that morning in the wee hours.
It dies not do this constantly, which is why it SO annoying.
Does anyone know why this happens?
Thanks.

You must have smart switch installed and permissions set properly.
Your Galaxy Watch says it's not backed up because automatic backups require specific conditions (phone charging, Wi-Fi, phone screen off, 1 AM-5 AM window), or there's a permissions/connection issue, often fixed by adjusting Smart Switch app settings to "Unrestricted" and ensuring full permissions for the Galaxy Wearable app, as manual backups were removed for newer models.

All this is already taken care of, and has been for quite a while.
And it only reports it at random times.
AND AS STATED ALREADY EVERY TIME I CHECK BY BRINGING UP GALAXY WEARABLE AND CHECK, IR SHOWS IT IS BEING BACKED UP AUTOMATICALLY AS IT SHOULD.
The ISSUE is these stupid silly random "reports" via notifications that "Oh has not been backed up in like over 18 days or any other random **bleep** number of days".
Everything is set correctly and as I just stated Wearable shows it HAS INDEED been backed up.
And yes, it is STILL AND WILL ALWAYS BE the BIGGEST mistake Samsung ever made by removing manual backup option.
