VA3 notifications stopped vibrating and calls notifications are not showing

For weeks now my VA3 decided to stop notifying me on calls. The default notifications stopped vibrating too. I checked and DND is off. Found a post on Reddit with similar issues. Anyone here have a solution?

open the Connect app on your phone. On the left drawer click devices and the choose the vivoacitve watch. go to device settings, then all the other described submenus and select to show all notifications in both scenarios. If you still don't understand I'm afraid it's a translation issue. Good luck! :)

This was not intuitive for me, I was clicking the vibration setting and settting to high thinking that also meant it was on, but it has to be swipe toggled on and green. A
