Facebook notifications not working

As the title is saying i have a problem with facebook notifications, they are not working, i don't receive any push notifications from facebook. My notifications are turned on in the iphone settings and also in the fb app. I tried all what i found on google(phone reset, turning on/off notifications, restarting the phone) and nothing helps. My app and my os are up to date. Anyone has the same problem?

Hello Bobo_99,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you're having trouble with Facebook notifications. We are happy to share information that may help.


First, delete the Facebook app: How to delete apps on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. Then, reinstall the app from the App Store.


Also, check out the information in the "If you don't see notifications for a specific app" section of this article: Use notifications on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.


If those steps do not resolve the issue, you may want to reach out to the app developer: How to contact an app developer.


Take care.

Hello Pink Petals! So sorry to hear this. I have also not received anything for months. There is no way to contact Facebook (by phone, email, etc.) I have even tried to chat with FB business and they said there is nothing they can do. I am hoping one day push notifications come back. It has now been since about March for me with nothing. All settings are turned on correctly and I have researched everywhere online, reported the issue to Facebook as they suggest. Nothing.

Same here. I have gone through my system settings and Facebook settings, and notifications are turned on. I uninstalled and reinstalled the app, and selected “allow notifications” when it came in after I logged back into Facebook, but still no “activity” notifications, although I am getting “news” and “video” notifications. I have reported the problem to Facebook, but so far, no response. Also, after the last update, most external pages (WSJ, WP, NYT, etc) don’t load.
