Best answer
Just turn on the notifications from Ring on your watch. If you have any devices with rich notifications then you’ll see the screenshot.

@pentosan53231 can you explain this in more detail?

@volteface if you have an Apple Watch, if you go into the watch app on the phone then you can turn on ring notifications. Some Ring devices have an option for rich text notifications, but I believe it’s a slow rollout (not everyone is getting it) and not all devices are getting it. For example, I currently only would receive them on one device (if I had mine turned on). I opted to turn them off because I don’t like all the alerts on my watch.

@pentosan53231 thank you. I'm not getting any in-notification screenshots on my iPhone yet, and figure that's why it wouldn't work on the watch either. Like you mentioned, it's probably a slow rollout.

@pentosan53231 when I got my I watch it automatically found the ring app in my iPhone and gives me notifications. I didn’t do anything as it sync itself up by itself

@wend7411, correct, but the OP is asking about rich text notifications. they're different.

@pentosan53231 thank you! I don’t have the option yet so I’ll just have to wait for the update.

I get notifications on my Apple Watch but you can’t look at the motion or speak with your watch.
