Is there a fix or current workaround on delayed notifications? I have the latest watch oS update with a Series 6 SS watch, i remember there was a time when notifications hit BEFORE the iphone, now it’s like a good 10 minutes before my watch notifies me, the thing is that I know the watch receives it simultaneously because i hear my iphone go off, go into messages and see the new message, i just don’t get the pop up. Please help!

if your phone screen is on, then the watch won't notify.


you'll get notifications on either the phone or the watch, not both at the same time. Since you're hearing the phone, that means the watch shouldn't notify.

It's possible the 10 minute delay is related to the multiple notification option for messages, if you've left a message unread, it can notify you multiple times depending on your settings.
