Recently purchased the Samsung Watch 7 and installed HA from the App store.
I can only receive notifications from HA while in the watch app.
I can’t seem to figure out how to receive notifications without having the app open.
Is there a trick to this or am I missing something?
Any advice is appreciated.

if sending notifications straight to the watch make sure to follow critical format to speed up delivery
see the note: https://companion.home-assistant.io/docs/wear-os/#notifications
Thanks for the feedback.
I restarted my phone, and the notifications started working on my watch.

Question, do all your notifications vibrate your watch regardless of importance, vibration pattern, etc? I want one that delivers silently but can’t get it working.
Thanks!
create a new channel and disable vibration on it, if you are sending it to watch directly a pattern of 0 should do it. Otherwise silent notifications do not mirror from teh watch by default on some watches.
the reason why you create a new chanel is because the vibration only gets set the first time teh channel is created and cannot be updated.
