Notification service not running. A phone restart is required to re-enable notifications

[Rwwatson]

The error message; "Notification service not running. A phone restart is required to re-enable notifications on your tracker" has been on my phone for months.  After it had been fixed in 2018, it is doing it again.  This is just getting stupid.  I have to continually manually sync the Charge 2 to my phone just to get the data off the watch.  There are no notifications working.  I am so frustrated this keeps happening, I was going to buy a newer version of the Charge, but no longer.  If this isn't fixed soon, I am going to another brand watch.  One that actually syncs to my phone and shows me my calls and texts.  Very upset customer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi @Rwwatson you are asking a question about the Fitbit app on your phone but have not identified your phone. I found your post on the unrelated Charge hardware support.
