    I have an Apple Watch connected to my new iPhone 7 Plus. I noticed that if I am wearing the watch that I only receive visual and sound notifications on the watch. I want to receive sound and visual notifications on both devices at all times.

    If you turn off Wrist Detection (on your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch > General > Wrist Detection), then all notification alerts will be delivered to both devices.

    The downside to this is, if you use the watch for activity recording (steps, calories, etc), it may not function correctly or at all if you turn off wrist detection.
