Apple Watch Ultra battery fully charged notification

Good morning


Somehow, I am not getting the notification on my iPhone when my Apple Watch Ultra‘S battery is fully charged. Both devices are on the latest software version released (26.1).

This has been going on since iOS 18.


Can you guys help?

Thank you very much

Apparently, in order to get the notification, you need to enable sleep schedule and then set charging reminders. This issue seems to be solved for now


thanks guys

Apple moved (and partly renamed) the setting that handles “Apple Watch is fully charged.”

On your iPhone:

Settings → Notifications → Activity → Charging Notifications

Make sure these are ON:

  • Apple Watch Charging Notifications
  • Full Charge Alert (if available)
  • Allow Notifications
  • Time-Sensitive Notifications

If this section is missing → your iPhone is not receiving battery events from the watch

Almost all options are set to mirror the iPhone.when I first got the Apple Watch I got the notification and now seems to be gone. I’ve read online that the reason why people stop getting the notification was related to the screen on time settings, but that never worked for me.


Also, when I have my phone and my watch on Low Power Mode. I always get the notification when it reaches 80%.

There is no such option on my phone under Settings>Notifications. Can you please post screenshots?
