Notification don't show up after 23.20

I updated to 23.20 on my 955 a couple of days ago- and since then the smart notifications are not displaying on watch.

I have tried unpairing and repairing my forerunner with my phone, besides toggling the notification settings on the phone throught connect and and watch itself- but nothing seems to be working.

The watch is connected to the phone, and I am able to successfully initiated "find my phone" from the watch and "find my device" from the phone, and the notifications show up in the Notifications glances as well- just that they do not pop on the watch screen like they did before the update. This is frustrating.

In addition- there is random severe battey drain issues.

Are these bugs in the update or could there be something else causing these issues?

Are you on iOS or Android? Haven't had an issue on my 965 with iOS

Should have mentioned in my post- Android 15 on a Pixel 7 Pro.

Tried a soft reset? Power down completely by holding in light button till it shuts down. Restart after say 20 secs

Also possibly try a software reinstall - Settings > About , press light 8 times , select software reinstall.

Its fixed a few small issues , like my gesture not working after 23.20 installed

That's not a soft reset. That's a forced hardware watchdog power off. It does nothing useful and can cause corruption. It's the equivalent of yanking the power lead out of your PC whilst you're in the middle of editing a document. Its only use is if the watch is totally unresponsive.

Do a normal power off through the menus. That saves your data.

Yeah. I meant i did an off and on cycle through the normal menu.

Btw- I was able to get the notifications working again. I backed up my watch- followed by a factory reset and data restore. Bingo- the notifications were alive again!!
