Apple Watch

I understand that you can’t get notifications on both your Apple Watch and iPhone at the same time but is there a way for me to get my iPhone to vibrate or at least have the screen light up when I get a notification and it’s locked while I have my watch on?

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 14

Notifications iPhone/Watch I got a problem I cant figure out. After I connected my Apple Watch 8 to my iPhone 14 pro max I don’t get any notifications on my phone, neither the watch. Or, I get the notification, but I physically have to touch them to see the notification. My phone don’t vibrate or light up when I get a notification, it just shows on the notification bar. My watch is vibrating one time, but doesn’t light up, and I have to drag down the notification bar to see the notification. What can I do to solve this? I want both the watch and the phone to light up and vibrate! But I don’t want to have the always on screen!

No. Notifications go to only the Apple Watch or your iPhone, not both.
