[HUAWEI] Managing messages on your watch

When your watch is linked with the Huawei Health app and message notifications are enabled, new messages pushed to your phone's status bar will be synced to your watch.

Enabling message notifications

  1. Open the Huawei Health app, navigate to the device details screen, touch Notifications, and toggle on the switch for Notifications.
  2. In the app list below, toggle on the switches for the apps that you wish to receive notifications from.

On the Notifications screen, the APPS section shows the apps for which push notifications are available.

Viewing unread messages

When being worn, your watch will vibrate to notify you of new messages pushed from the status bar of your phone.

Unread messages will be kept on your watch. To view them, swipe up on the watch home screen to enter the message centre.

Replying to messages

 
  • This feature is available only on the HUAWEI WATCH GT 4 Series, HUAWEI WATCH Ultimate, HUAWEI WATCH Buds, HUAWEI WATCH GT Cyber, HUAWEI WATCH D, HUAWEI WATCH GT 3 Series, HUAWEI WATCH GT 2022 Premium Edition, and HUAWEI WATCH GT Runner.
  • This feature is unavailable when your watch is paired with an iPhone.
  • Replying to an SMS message only works with the SIM card that has received the message.

To reply to a new SMS message or a message from WhatsApp, Messenger, or Telegram on your watch, you can use quick replies or emoticons. Supported message types are subject to actual use.

Customising quick replies

 
  • If there is no Quick replies card, it indicates that your watch does not support this feature.
  • This feature is unavailable when your watch is paired with an iPhone.

You can customise a quick reply as follows:

  1. Once your watch is linked with the Huawei Health app, open the app, navigate to the device details screen, and touch the Quick replies card.
  2. You can touch Add reply to add a new one, touch an existing reply to edit it, or touch next to a reply to delete it.

Deleting unread messages

  • On the message centre, swipe left on a message that you wish to delete, and touch to delete it.

    Certain watch models do not support the deletion of an individual message.

  • Touch at the bottom of the message list to clear all unread messages.
