Incoming call notification is not showing on the watch if there is a contact photo, nor does the watch vibrate.
The second time, if the call comes from the same caller, the notification will show. But this is really annoying as i always keep my phone in silent mode and rely on the watch to alert me for incoming calls.
Looks like the watch ignores the notification if the contact photo is not transferred ontime to the watch by bluetooth.. The second time, the call shows up as the contact photo is already cached.. that's my analysis..
Just wanted to check if this problem is with anyone else or just me.. please say if it is...
Yes, sometimes it does that

Same problem even without photos
I am having the same problem. However, my watch is not showing the call notification regardless of whether there is a contact photo or not. It seems to be just random --- mostly not showing the notification.
i have moto 360 sports and i am using it with iphone i had exact same issue after playing around with the watch i found the fix. go to setting-->permission-->system permission-->device management---> enable the phone icon. also if you are using i phone your android wear app must be running in background all the time otherwise watch wont connect. which is big con

Hello
Is there any way to silence a call using the watch? I am not talking about rejecting the call, just to turn off the ringer.
It can be done by pressing the vol/power button on the phone but I cant find how to do it on watch.
quick google couldnt give me the answer, hope you guys know any way to acheive this
You can look at the app "Ringtone Remote" in Google Play. I haven't tried it, but it seems to be able to do what you want. It is also free!
When you cover the watch with a open palm, the watch will turn black and the phone will become silent and the call will continue to ring silently
Nice, didn't know that. It actually did work... the first time. When I test it the second time the call on the watch gets muted but the phone keeps on ringing, even though it did work the first time I tested.
thanks it works. But i dont get a 100% success rate. But it still works
Wear Mini Launcher, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.npi.wearminilauncher. It has a Widgets screen that controls multiple things on the phone, including allowing you to toggle speaker on, mute, or vibrate... from the watch.
I would also like to be able to touch one of the icons on the watch face that I am using to immediately mute the watches' speaker. That would solve your request and mine also. Thanks
Hi, quick question. If I set a WA group notification to be muted on my phone, is it normal to have my Watch still vibrates when I receive any text from that group? I remember my Gear Fit 2 acted the opposite.
I have the same problem lately but without watch connected at all I think it is Whatsapp problem
On my Verizon S20, recently incoming calls are not ringing and/or not displaying on my phone. I'll see missed calls with the phone right in front of me. Or I'll hear it ringing, but it stays on the Always-On display without showing the call screen to accept or decline or even who is calling. I'm also not hearing text messages either. Any ideas?

Verizon tech support had me go and reset the phone settings and it resolved the issues. The only pain was going back and redoing ring and notification tones, always on display, and a few other settings.
Dear all,
my apologies if this topic alredy exists in this forum.
My problem:
I'm pairing my Watch4 via BT with Note8, Android version 9.
WhatsApp text messages show up on the watch as expected, but calls don't. I get notified about missed calls, but those specific notifications show themselves as that orange dot only. No vibration or sound. I could stand having this issue if at least the "missed call" notification would work well.
Here's the odd thing; every now and then I actually do get that call notification, with the opportunity to decline. But not very often and there is no behavior pattern whatsoever. Seems totally random.
It didn't work with my old Galaxy Active Watch either, so I'm suspecting that the problem might be with the phone, not the watch.
I would so much appreciate some good advice on how to troubleshoot this. Or at least an explanation of the cause.
Anyone...?
So my new pixel watch is alerting me to text messages. My phone is not. If I turn the watch off my phone then alerts me to text messages. Anyone know how to fix this?
Go into the notification settings in the Pixel Watch app on your phone.
Under General you have different possibilities:
Watch muted and phone notification
Watch notification and phone muted
Notification on both
Sounds like you have an option to only notify on watch when connected or in use. What Dan said is likely the reason.
