Hello!

Thanks for reaching out!


If you want to get messages to your Apple Watch, follow these steps...


  1. Make sure your iPhone is paired to your watch = https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/watch/apdde4d6f98e/watchos
  2. Make sure your watch is close by
  3. Make sure your iPhone and your watch is powered on and has battery
  4. Make sure your devices are not on any Focus modes that would silence any messages

Check if its working, try this...

Open Watch app on iPhone, scroll down under the My Watch tab until you find the Messages app and tap it, then make sure its set to mirror iPhone.


Let me know if this helps, and let me know if you have any more questions!

Cheers
