Notifications on Apple Watch

[Ori Dekel]

Hi,
I have an apple watch series 5.
I turned off "Wake Screen on Wrist Raise".
Does it affect the behavior of the notifications on my apple watch?

Thanks,

Ori

No will work as Normal

I have raise to wake off too..makes it feel like a watch to me and I like it during workouts so it stays on the workout time etc

It does, sort of. You'll need to tap on the screen to view the incoming notification instead of raising your watch to see them. But the watch will still receive the incoming notifications.

This is the bit that annoys me. I'd like to be able to glance down while I have my hands full to see if I need to deal with the message. I've turned raise to wake back on for this reason.

Get that reasoning but I turned mine off as it did feel like any little movement and my watch was turning on which to me went against the point of AOD
