My nexus 5 was recently updated and my moto 360 is barely usable. I would sometimes miss notifications before this update but recently it's been a lot worse. Sometimes the watch face disappears completely and it's just a blank screen. I'm also getting errors saying that fit needs android wear to update.
I've tried doing a factory reset as well with no luck

uninstall the wear app then reinstall it
I've noticed that after the update some notifications doesn't wake up the watch or make it vibrate, when you use the "try notifications" from the Android wear app just 4 of them wake up the watch, i hope that with the next update al notifications are shown in the watch .
This may sound stupid but it worked for me. I was only getting some notifications too. Tried setting new watch faces and syncing from my phone but nothing fixed it. This is what fixed it for me. I changed the watch face from the watch itself, and then hit the little settings gear on the watch face, edited something, and then selected the face. All notifications worked after that.
Hi,
about 2 day ago my SW3 stopped displaying notificaions like Facebook Messenger, SMS (stock application), calls. I tried reinstalling everything - factory reset, reinstalling Android Wear application etc. It helped for some time but after few hours it stopped displaying notifications again.
Google Now works, Coffee (SMS) works but stock SMS or calls or Messenger aren't display on my wrist.
I'm not 100% sure (I tried new ROM) but I believe that I wasn't changed anything. Android Wear application was upgraded twice and it's name was changed, could it be the reason?
I haven't install any new application.
Aby idea?
Thanks.
P.S. I have Samsung S6 with custom ROM. SW3 is on stock.
Are the notifications displaying on the phone in the Notification bar?? If not, then it's a problem with the phone and the ROM. New ROM may be blocking notifications. I have Notification Manager in my Settings which allows me to change notifications. The watch will only display notifications that appear on the phone.
Did you make sure to enable Notification Access in the phone's settings?
The designer can disable notifications in the watchface, could that be it?

I could see the notification in the bar and everything was enabled.
Now, although I didn't made any change it started working again well. I don't understand...
Thanks for trying to help.
Guessing its the rom
It sounds similar to the problems I am experiencing. Everything works fine for a few hours after a factory reset, but then I am stuck with no notifications from Gmail, Hangouts stops syncing new messages, no remote controls for Play Music, etc. There is still connection with the phone... Find My Phone still works, Ghostracer still syncs my runs (eventually).
I've tried several factory resets and still it happens every time. The watch was working great until a few weeks ago, very frustrating.
I have exactly the same problems as above.
Smartwatch 3 and Note 4 - both stock. They work for a few hours together after a reboot and then the notifications stop appearing on the phone.
I turn off notifications to android wear and turn it back on again and its ok for a little while and then stops working again.
Anyone got any ideas?
A bit of an update to this. I've now managed to get mine back up and running reasonably well - to the point its been running ok for 2 days. Previously it would only be an hour or two until it stopped sending notifications to the watch.
I deleted the Android Wear App
I performed a factory reset on the watch
Re-install android wear.
Pair watch
It then went through and installed all my apps and since then has worked fine.
I've figured it out. It was caused by restoring nandroid backup in TWRP.
Solution: go to the application manager on the phone, all applications. Find Google services and delete all data including wear storage.
The watch will be forgotted and you have to pair it again but everything should work well.
I was just about to reply to this again as although above I said it was working fine I managed to get it to break again.
The only difference was that I had changed to a non sony watchface.
As soon as i started using a 3rd party one i was getting the same problems again
I've been back on a builtin watchface for a while and its been working fine.
I've just swapped back to a 3rd party one to see how long it works for.
Is anyone else having a delay in phone notification? By the time my watch starts vibrating to notify me of a phonecall I have already missed the call on my phone. That's irritating. One of the reasons I got the watch was to let me know when my phone starts ringing. My emails and texts seem to be notifying me just fine. It's just the phone notification.
Ideas?
I have only a small delay like 0,5s. So I think this is not normal. Are you connected by bluetooth or maybe by wifi?
I'm connected by BT. Like i mentioned all of my other notifications are working just fine. It's just the phone notification. I wiped my watch and reloaded everything so i am waiting to see if that fixed anything.

I have this at times, though not always. I also get it where after I answer the call it continues to vibrate on my watch. hangouts messages do take a few seconds to push to the watch though. that said, this behavior has been consistent with my zenwatch, smartwatch 3 and my hwatch so I think it's just inherent in the platform

Same here.
I just tested a call and it was about .5 to 1.0 seconds which is considered very good by my taste. But I did notice SMS and Hangouts does take a few seconds.
Maybe they set the priority like that on purpose.
Same problem for me...

I am experiencing the same exact problem with my Nexus 6P - no amount of resetting seems to have fixed the problem. This has been extremely frustrating.
Anyone else figure this out without having to warranty the watch. Mine is a good 3 seconds behind with a Nexus 6. The call can go to voicemail before the watch vibrates.

I'm hoping with the new update to Wear announced today that it will fix the delay. Hoping....

it has nothing to do with the watch, I've got a sw3 as well that behaves the same with my 6p. previously I had a zenwatch, and it had the same delay with my n6 and later the 6p
I believe it's the android wear app itself. If you can find the AW 1.3 apk from apkmirror or the like, you should see a difference. Hopefully the new OS update will help alleviate the issue.
Same here with HW Watch Active. Phone get instant Message since Doze Settings on Marshmallow were edited, Watch still delayed...
I am having problems as well. Sometimes I would get notifications on my watch, other times the notifications would be delayed. I just tried and I am not even getting calls to my watch. I had to perform a factory restart twice now in order to get it to work. Why is that? I have a Huawei watch sync with a Huawei Mate 9. I would figure they both should work seamlessly.
any advice would be appreciated

Did you find a solution? I am experiencing the same issue, the incoming calls are not working and I also cant therefore receive calls directly on the watch. I am using an updated Huawei Watch with the HTC One M8, which is also updated to Android 6.0, with the latest version of Android Wear.
Cheers

The incoming calls seem to have fixed itself. However, what really solved the issue was that I had to make sure, on my Huawei phone, Android wear was set to close after the screen lock. I made sure that Android wear was always running in the background. Not sure if there is a similar setting on the HTC One M8, but making sure android wear was not in any power saving mode solved the problem for me.
Hope it help,

I fixed the issue with a "wipe partition cache" procedure. Thanks
Since the latest Android Wear update a few days ago, my watch appears connected to my Honor 7, but I don't receive notifications anymore.
I can change the watchface from the phone, i can find the phone from the watch, so there is communication.
If I disconnect the watch, delete android wear from the phone, restart and do a new connect with the watch, it works again, i receive all notifications again. Until, I shut down the watch or restart the phone, then nothing again.
Resyncing apps via Android Wear on the phone does not help. Any clues?
Honor 7 with MM6.01 (b371) and M1D63M on watch.

Interestingly I am experiencing the exact same at the moment.. Oddly enough it worked just fine yesterday, but not two days ago or today...
Thanks for replying, now at least I know this is not just me.
I am also having the same problem. I need to disconnect and reconnect several times in a day to get notifications. I thought the latest update was just security fix but i think it has messed up the core functionality as well.
for me, even the watch face cannot be changed from phone.
Funny I ignored this thread until it happened to me just today

i'm going crazy....same issue happened to me!!! i'm looking forward to find a solution ASAP!!!
Same is happening to me. I've tried all of the above as well but no success keeping the notifications from disappearing.
Interestingly though, I also have an app installed called Feel the Wear which lets you set different vibrations on the watch for different types of notifications. I only use one custom vibration for hangouts. Whenever I get a hangouts message, I still get the custom vibration on the watch but the message itself doesn't hit the watch.

Well, apparently this is becoming an issue. I don't think Sony is to blame, because it started just after the latest Android Wear update, my watch was working perfectly before that. Anywhere I can download a previous version? Then I will install that version and don't allow it to update for now until Google has fixed the issue........
Just this morning I received an update OTA on my watch to version M1D63X, but unfortunately no changes to the notification problem........
Just connected again with my z1 compact, works well, everything fine with the notifications. Therefore it must be something to do with the honor 7 or with mm6, because my z1 compact runs on lp5.1
Same on my watch + Xperia Z3 Compact. There must be some problems with Android Wear app, many of my friends have the same problem. Notifications work after reconnecting but not for a very long time.
Also incoming mails are notified a couple of times in a row for some time, f.e. I get banggood offers mail which is notified on the phone and on the watch, then in the next 5 minutes there goes another notification about the same mail, and again, and again... until I dismiss that notification. Drives me crazy so I just immediately swipe e-mail notification when it arrives (I don't want to block the app).
Hoping for a quick fix...
Every time this problem occurs I simply restart the watch and phone at the same time. Fixed the problem every time. Restarting the watch alone does not help.
Also can confirm that the watch indeed is connected to the phone, no notifications go through to the watch. Had a song successfully identified by Shazam on the watch while the problem was present...
After yesterday upgrade my OnePlus X to android 6.0.1 - Sony SW3 stops receiving notifications. There is info at android wear app, that synchronization was shut down and i have to restart phone to resolve that problem. After restart it works for some time and then the same problem. I think that some program is shutting down by android but i dont know where i can find it, and what it is. Anybody? App that sends notifications to watch?
Same with me. I only get the notification by the app Feel the Wear and having custom vibrations on Gmail, Whatsap and Facebook. But no notification on the watch itself. Also since the last 2 updates.
Since flashing a Nougat rom on my Nexus 6, I have been receiving all notifications on the watch. It's only been a few days but so far so good. Still not a fix for anyone stuck on MM but try flashing Nougat on your phone if you have the option.
Edit: I flashed a couple of different Nougat roms which requires two separate factory resets of the watch. not sure if that had anything to do with notifications coming through.
I'm having problems getting the P2XL to pass notifications to my Huawei watch.
Phone calls are no problem, phone battery display, weather, steps etc all work fine.
I just don't get message notifications. I've tried using the stock app and Textra but neither works.
Facebook Messenger even works...
edit: I just noticed I also don't get notifications from GMail app.
I've gone in and disabled battery optimisation for Android Wear, allowed every imaginable notification permission but it still won't pass message notifications.
My old Pixel XL was great for this. It worked absolutely every time.

Similar boat here. Moto 360 v2. I use an app called Feel The Wear to give me a long vibration for texts which I get but no message on my watch. Not sure about Gmail notifications but don't remember getting a buzz or card on my watch.

probably not much help but i have a garmin fenix 3 hr and i get all notifications just fine.
could it be a permissions issue? i was prompted to give permissions when i connected the watch the first time.
I had the same issue with my Huawei watch. I had to forget the watch in the phone Bluetooth, clear app data on android wear, uninstall android wear, then re-install android wear and use it to set the watch up again. I did not have to reset the watch. After that notifications worked.

I was prompted for permission when I connected first time too, but... that was before the watch upgraded to Android 2.5
Count me in. I have the Pixel 2 XL and the Moto 360 gen 2. All was working fine except I would stop getting notifications randomly, but rebooting the watch would fix it (even though I turn the watch off most nights until I need to charge it, so it was being rebooted normally already).
Now the last 3 days no notifications. Reboots don't help at all.
When this happens, like the original post said, the watch is still connected, I get battery stats, it shows when audio plays, shows incoming phones calls, just no app notifications like text or gmail.
The only thing left to do is disconnect and reset. I'm still on the Sep 5th security update. I have the Nov security update notification, maybe I'll do that today and see if it helps at all.
By any chance have you NOT downloaded the actual app on your watch? I thought I had a problem too, with Feel the Wear, but then realized I hadn't downloaded the Feel the Wear app on my watch. As soon as I did, everything worked. This is with Android Wear 2 on a moto 360 sport.

I have a Samsung Gear S3 and it works perfect as well.
Make sure Android messages is installed on ur watch,this application is related to some of the missing notifications.
