Android Central Question

Hi everyone,

for the past few months I have been having an issue with my Galaxy S8 seeming to clear notifications on its own. If I get a WhatsApp message (for example) when I take the phone out of my pocket or lift it off the table, the screen seems to turn on, remove the notification from the lock screen, and then ask straight away for my PIN. Then when it is unlocked I have no idea what the notification was as it has been cleared. I am not sure if it is something to do with having a gear S3 watch as well as it seems that if I look at the watch first without opening the notification there, it stays on the phone.

Has anyone else had similar problems?

Welcome to Android Central! Do you have WhatsApp installed on other devices or on a computer? If so, is it open at the same time?
