When you get the notification on your iPhone it means that the phone is unlocked.

Notifications will only go to your watch when the phone is locked.

Is your watch connected to your iPhone?

Are you notifications set up?

Has it ever worked?

But I’m not receiving them when phone is locked either

It’s connected and notifications are set up. I’ve only had it a week
