messages making sound but not displaying on watch

[mk313]

Don't see any other threads on this, but I'm running whatever the last version os Watch OS 9 is on my Series 6. Yesterday evening, my messages stopped displaying on my watch. I still hear the alert, and if I an on a screen that has my messages complication, I see the 1 there, but the messages, until that time, also displayed on the watch. My other notifications (calendar, 3rd party apps, etc) still show up normally.

I don't remember touching anything on the watch or the watch app on my phone in the last several weeks. Has anyone else seen this & figured out how to get the messages to pop up again?

I've tried restarting, but that didn't change anything.

Thanks in advance.

Good idea. I hadn’t thought the issue could be the phone. Just rebooted. We’ll see.

and I'd go thru the notification settings on both AW and iPhone for the messages app just to double check

Thanks for the replies.

Just to close the loop on this one, I also noticed that Apple Pay stopped working. Not sure what happened but I unpaired & Repaired the watch & all is well again.
