Hello all - this seems to be an odd scenario that has me baffled. When my phone (6) is locked - I don't get any notifications other than phone calls. I've checked (many times) the notification settings - all are engaged. Lock screen enabled? YES. Sound on? YES. Etc.
it WILL work fine if the phone is unlocked and I'm using it - however, once locked it's a no go.
Now here is the oddity if this has anything to do with it - I have a first gen Apple Watch. I get notifications on it fine if enabled.
The only reason I think it might have something to do with the watch is here recently, when there was a watch OS update - I was using my iPhone while it updated. Surprised as I was - notifications worked fine... locked or not. As SOON as the watch booted up and synced fully - nadda.
I'm really at my wits end now - I constantly miss messages so it makes me paranoid to check my phone or watch often which I don't want to do.
Anyone else have this issue who has a iPhone and watch? Is it a OS issue? I thought that the last iOS update would fix it - but no go. I've meant to go to an Apple Store and show them - but I've never had a chance.
Thanks for any help in advance.
