I don't get notified on my Galaxy watch 4 when I get texts on my S23+. I use Messages by Google to send/receive texts on my phone, but they're not getting pushed to my watch. I've done the obvious stuff (pairng/unpairing, rebooting, checking the phone's notification settings) but nothing works. Any ideas?

Did you turn on notifications on your watch for messages?

You have to turn on and select what apps you want to receive notifications from on the watch

Thank you for reaching. I can certainly understand your frustration with not receiving text message notification. In order to provide you with the best troubleshooting step possible, does this just happen with text message notifications or all notification?

 

Did you have this watch paired with another device? If so, did you experience these symptoms?

 

Have you verified the software is up-to-date on your watch?

Yes - it was paired to my S21 without any issue.
