Samsung Gear S2 not receiving notifications

[Android Central Question]

My Gear S2 stopped receiving notifications couple days ago. I've checked all my notification settings and BT settings which are all on. I've tried rebooting the watch on my wrist, off my wrist. I've tried unlinking it to my phone's BT setting. The only thing I haven't done is a factory reset which I think is a terrible solution to this whole thing.

I was wondering if anyone else had another idea?

Thanks!

Is it all notifications or just text messages? If just texts check to see if your messaging app recently got updated. Happened to me once and I ended up rolling back the update until they fixed it.
