How to Enable Phone Notifications on HONOR Watch 5 with Android

Pairing Your Watch and Phone

• 🔗 Ensure your HONOR Watch 5 is paired with your Android phone using the HONOR Health application before proceeding.

Granting Notification Permissions

• 📲 Open the HONOR Health app, navigate to 'Device', select your 'Honor Watch 5', and tap on 'Notifications'.
• 💡 If notifications are disabled, tap the switch to enable them. You may see pop-ups requesting permissions.
• ✅ To enable notification access, tap 'enable' on the pop-up, find the HONOR Health app in the list, toggle 'allow notification access', and confirm by tapping 'allow'.
• 📞 Additional permissions for calls and SMS may be required if you wish to receive these types of notifications.

Customizing App Notifications

• ⚙️ Once notification access is enabled, you can choose which specific apps can send alerts to your watch.
• 🔀 Simply tap the switch next to each app to enable or disable notifications for it.
• 💬 If an app's notification is enabled, alerts from that app on your phone will be forwarded to your watch; if disabled, they will only appear on your phone.

Testing Notifications

• 📬 After configuring the settings, test the functionality by sending a message from an enabled app (e.g., Discord) to your phone.
• ⌚ Swipe up on the watch's home screen to access the notification panel and verify that the notification has been received.
