Not receiving notifications on my phone when wearing my watch

I’m not receiving notifications on my phone while wearing my watch. I miss texts frequently. What can I do?

Thank you for your reply. I spent 109 minutes on the phone with Apple Support last week, still no resolution. If my watch is locked, I receive tones. If I am wearing the watch or it’s active, there is no sound on my phone. I’m missing calendar events and text messages. Very frustrating as I have a full calendar full of items to complete for a move.

Thanks for your reply. I do have ‘mirror my iPhone’ checked on calendar and messages. As long as my watch is unlocked, I’m not receiving a tone for either on my phone. I have missed a few calendar events over the past few days. It’s crucial I hear and see them right now, I have a full calendar while we’re moving.
