I have two apple watches, a series 2 and a series one, that i swap out occasionally depending on the day/activity. every day when i put on one of my watches, regardless of which one i'm wearing, imessage never works on my watch. i have to turn off imessage and switch it back on every day? has anyone else had this issue? has anyone had a fix for this? any suggestions? i've factory reset both watches and it's done nothing

Who’s your carrier?
[doublepost=1523888052][/doublepost]I ask because a colleague had verizon and had the same issue.
It stopped when he dumped the two precious gem and upgraded to the three.

Have you check the following
watch app is auto switch enabled?

Watch app notifications for messages are enabled and background refresh enabled

I'm using straight talk. I've had them for probably 10 years and have had an apple watch sincen the first gen.

Auto switch is on and notifications are switched to mirror iphone

Ahhh
I change all four watches to custom.

I was receiving messages but wasn’t getting any notifications.
