Is anyone getting Google texts messages on your watch? I have had my watch since Friday but no texts messages come through on my watch. I have reset, restarted my phone and watch. Turned off and turned on Goggle messages app notifications on the watch. Nothing has worked

OK. Something comes to mind - in the Wear app, do you have notifications set to always show on both, or set to Smart device selection? Always show on both will insure notifications come to your watch always. Smart device selection will only show on phone if you are connected at the time. If your connection to the phone is lost, or the screen is off, the notifications will come to the watch. Since most people are usually in connection range of their phone while wearing the watch (or have remote connection enabled), this means that when set to smart device selection, notifications will only go to the phone. Check those settings. I believe smart device selection is the default.

Do you have the Google messages companion app on the watch?

@userUcXsIB6yMz I am getting notifications on my watch. I hadn't checked opening Google Messages directly on the GW Ultra 2 until just now. I opened the app and there were no messages. But it did have a link to go to the phone's inbox. I clicked on that and now all my messages are on the watch. I'm guessing that I had to do that since I don't have cellular service on my watch.
