  • While I am on a walk there seems to be no way to access notifications, I can only swipe up to You Tube Music . Is there no way of seeing notifications whilst exercising? I do not have DND on!!

@Bassettjake You can receive notifications on your watch while you are working out, but you may not be able to exit the exercise app to see all notifications or reply to text messages.

If you aren't receiving notifications at all on your watch during the exercise, make sure you don't have Exercise Mode turned on in the settings. Swipe down from the top, scroll down and tap Settings, then tap Quiet Modes, and scroll down to make sure Exercise Mode is not turned on. Exercise Mode will prevent notifications from coming through your watch while you are recording a workout on your watch.
