i have hard reset the watch , deleted the wearable app and reinstalled , repaired the watch as new watch , gave all permissions , set the default phone app as default ,, contacts are shown on the watch normally ,, messages too..

but when i have an incoming call the name not shown , just a number ,, very frustrating ,, i would like to have a responce from samsung ASAP ...  how to fix this !!  my other mates watches are working fine with the same configurations !! only mine !!

same issue here . Just bought a z fold 5 and galaxy watch 6 classic. caller id on the watch is up in the air, sometimes when I recive a call  its just the number showing on the  watch abd some times it is with the caller name showing. I tried to remove all the country codes from my contacts but is till not stable. this is a big low from  samsung  when there products cost a big fortune.

I have the same problem with my Galaxy Watch 5pro and S24 Ultra. It now works for me after I set the following:

Settings / Apps / Coose default apps / Caller ID and spam app / set Phone

it works !

Hi Van you elaborate on the solution a little bit more? These steps need to be followed on the device or on the watch? I do not have the Caller ID and Spam app option in my 'Choose Default apps' menu. It would be helpful if you can detail the steps and provide screenshots of the solution.
