I am not getting sound notifications on text messages nor is the banner showing up on my locked screen. I have an iPhone 11 and just downloaded the latest iOS 14. Have reset my phone twice now. Please advise. Thank you.

iPhone 11
Like many on here I had been having many of the same issues, missing all sorts of notifications, not just text since upgrading to ios 14 (first 14.1 then 14.2). Here is what fixed my issue... I went to settings->notifications->messages (for this example) and scrolled down to the options section. For the show previews section the "when unlocked (default)" was selected, meaning only notifications would only appear when the phone is unlocked when is hardly ever the case. I switched it always and the issue is now gone. I had to go into may other apps one by one and toggle this option back to always. Showing previews only when unlocked was 100% not my setting before this update.
What is interesting/****** me off is my wife just upgraded to ios14 and did not have issue. I went into her phone to settings->notifications->messages and for her show previews option was selected as "always (default)". Why on her phone she has options listed as "always (default)" and on my is "always" and "when unlocked (default)" I have no clue.
Thanks Apple!
I have not been getting notifications consistently and it is extremely annoying.
I too am having this same problem. I noticed once my air pods pro were initially connected then i started having this issue. Has anyone else noticed that?
I’m almost always connected to my airpod pros so perhaps this is contributing to the issues. Shouldn’t be a thing tho...
I have the iPhonw XR and I downloaded the iOS 14 as well, and I am also not getting text notifications nor the banner.
So we send a screenshot of no notification? How do you prove that through a screenshot?
I am having the same issue. Sometimes I get a notification. Sometimes not. I need to check me phone periodically for texts.
In a quick update - I contacted Apple Support who told me that “there’s way more IPhone XS than those having issues” so I should just force restart my phone. oh, ok... :(
I’m having the same problem. I’ve checked all of the suggested fixes and it isn’t caused by any of those. It’s frustrating to miss texts all day.
Hate this update! Half the time when I go to open the messages app itself, the texts I never knew I had appeared as read
It’s very frustrating. I rely on my iPhone for work related messages. I wonder how many important text messages are getting missed right now.
Yea I do not like that part of the update whatsoever. I don’t even understand the point of it, why would I not want to be notified when someone texts me?
I’m having this issue too. I don’t like this change at all. We need an update ASAP.
I have an Apple Watch and still have the issue unfortunately.
It didn’t work for me either. Now my phone sucks a thousand times more. 😞
Notifications never coming through anymore is just one more reason my next phone will not be Apple. Nothing with Apple is reliable anymore.
