After recent update I've noticed a bug with incoming notifications.
Very often they simply "hang" - they do not appear in full screen, but overlap the watch face.

I have a feeling that 26 is going to be the last firmware.
Our engineering team has confirmed that there will be new Beta phases and official software releases for the Fenix 6 series.

Engineering is aware of the issue and it remains escalated with them to be resolved as soon as possible.
Update May 23, 2024:
Our engineering team has indicated this should now be resolved with the Public Software version 27.00.
I'm not guessing, just reading the same complaints after every single Firmware update. battery drain, misbehavior etc. The fact that you dont use a stock watchface might trigger this issue.
I'm wondering why you don't want to try it out by using a stock watchface. It's simple to do and no factory reset is needed, which, by the way, I didn't suggest either.
If it really would be a bug in firmware, a lot more people would experience this, my wife and I included. However, both Fenix devices work well after the update. Both use stock watchfaces.
But, what do I know...
I haven't mentioned that I am not going to try.
I used the simplest stock watch face:
Here are the notifications from MS Teams:
I can confirm there is a same problem with stock watchface and notifications on Fenix 6X Pro Solar.
I restarted my watch today. And after the restart I have the same problem. I've been using a Garmin watch face the whole time. What can I say.... thanks Garmin for another hilarious update.
I am getting hanging notifications but only during an activity
I have the exact same issue with a standard watchface, no activity running. 6x sapphire
Hi,
Today my contribution, i can say that it never show the message when notif is shown as a transparent overlay over Watchface (this one is not stock, but from Garmin dev).
Sometimes notification are slow to show (from app icon to message overview content 'next screen" without using button).
Sometimes notifcation is locked on the App icon screen and never show the overwiev until the end of the notification on screen timer.
i know it does not help but my text messages show fine on my watch. no overlay or delay. i am not using a standard watch face. Watch has been behaving fine since the 26.00 update. I only install public firmware.
I am also having an issue with slow and hanging notifications since the 26.00 update.
