I'm sure it has been addressed before but the search didn't help me at all. I'm not receiving notifications on my watch, phone is on standby and no other devices are using iMessage, I get nothing. Messages show up on the watch but the only reason I know I get a message is because my phone went off. I've shut off iMessage and turned it back on, I've restored the Apple Watch, made sure it's not on do not disturb and it's not silenced. I'm at a loss. It also does not recognize that I'm wearing it, I always have to enter my pass code no matter what. I'm ready to send it back to Apple.. It's running the latest watch on and the latest iOS version on a iPhone 6s+
 
I'm having a similar problem that started when I installed the latest iOS public beta. It's a known issue with that build. Do you have the public beta on your phone?

Yeah the issue i'm having since downloading the latest public beta is that I now get notifications on both the phone and the watch - before if my phone was locked they only came to my watch. I'm glad it's a known bug - hopefully it will get addressed in the next release.

Cheers,
Bobbie

You may have a faulty sensor if it's not detecting that you have it on your wrist. Have you tried taking it to the Apple Store or calling AppleCare+ (if you have it). ?
 
I suddenly stopped getting any notifications on my Watch after updating to iOS 9.3 Beta 4 last week.

I have since reverted back to stable iOS 9.2.1 and everything is working perfectly again.
 
I'm having the same issue. How can I revert back?

I removed myself from the Public Beta program by going to Settings...General...Profile and then tap on the little arrow on the next two screens, and then tap on "Delete Profile".

You will then be able to download and install iOS 9.2.1 by following the guide here. I did not have a backup of my phone, so I had to set it up as a new device and download all my apps from scratch.
 
Im not on a beta, I chatted with Apple and fare troubleshooting for over an hour they ran out of ideas and are having me send it to them for repair
 
For a few weeks now I have had a problem with phone calls notifying me on the watch. I pretty much have to restart the watch daily or calls will not alert me.
