Hi all. I am unable to receive sms notifications on my watch 5 but I do get them on my Fold 3. I think maybe other message apps could be interfering with it but I don't know which one or how to change them. Any help appreciated thank you 😊

Check if the messaging app you're using is allowed to send notifications to your watch (and that it is set to receive them even if the phone is in use). Just open your Wearable app on your phone, select your Watch, go to Watch Settings, then Notifications. There, make sure that the "Show phone notifications on watch' is set to "Show alerts even when phone in use". Then, go to App notifications and find the messaging app you're using; check that the toggle is on.
