Is anyone else still having issues with watchOS 26 on their Apple Watch where notifications don’t show up on the watch?


I’m using a Series 9, and I’m not getting any notifications at all even though it’s still connected to my phone.


I have to unpair and re-pair every two days for the notifications to come back — but then it stops working again.


I’ve already tried resetting settings and setting it up as a new watch, but the issue persists.


Has anyone found a fix for this yet?


Both Focus mode and Do Not Disturb are turned off.


The problem started about a week ago.

iPhone 15 Pro Max, iOS 26
