Push Notifications on Apple Watch

My app is waiting for review by Apple to be released and there is no setting to support Apple Watch inside my app. My question is: Is the notifications which come to device in which my app is installed will be automatically displayed also on Apple Watch without making any update/change for my app (Like adding Apple Watch as target)? If so, will push notification actions of my iOS app also be available (and functional of course) on Apple Watch?

How do I get push notifications on my Apple Watch?

Tap My Watch, then tap Notifications. Tap the app (for example, Messages), tap Custom, then choose an option. Options may include: Allow Notifications: The app displays notifications in Notification Center.

How do I get notifications on both iPhone and Apple Watch?

If you turn off Wrist Detection (on your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch > Passcode - turn off Wrist Detection), then all notification alerts will be delivered to both devices.

Your notifications will show up on the Apple Watch automatically:

If your iOS app supports local or remote notifications, Apple Watch displays those notifications at appropriate times. When one of your app’s local or remote notification arrives on the user’s iPhone, iOS decides whether to display that notification on the iPhone or on Apple Watch.
