When you miss a call on your Apple Watch Series 10, several things happen depending on your settings and the state of your devices:
Notifications and Call Display
1. Missed Call Notification: If you miss a call, your Apple Watch will display a notification indicating the missed call. This typically includes the name or number of the caller, and it may remain on the screen until you dismiss it or take action, such as calling back[2].2. Vibration and Sound: If your watch is set to vibrate or has sound enabled, you will feel a vibration or hear a sound when you receive an incoming call. However, if you miss the call, you will not receive a separate notification unless configured to do so[8].
3. Mirroring Notifications: The notifications for missed calls can be mirrored from your iPhone. If your iPhone is locked or asleep, notifications should appear on your Apple Watch unless it is locked with a passcode[1]. If your iPhone is unlocked, notifications will go to the iPhone instead[1].
Voicemail and Call Management
- If the caller leaves a voicemail, you will receive a notification on your Apple Watch that allows you to listen to the voicemail directly from the watch. You can tap to play the voicemail and manage it (e.g., delete or call back) from there[8].Troubleshooting Missed Calls
If you find that missed calls are not being displayed correctly:- Ensure that both your Apple Watch and iPhone are updated to the latest software versions.
- Check that wrist detection is enabled and that your watch is properly paired with your iPhone.
- Review notification settings for the Phone app on both devices to confirm they are set to mirror appropriately[2][5].
In summary, missing a call on your Apple Watch 10 results in a missed call notification that can be managed directly from the watch, provided all settings are correctly configured.
