Delayed notifications

Try this, turn on and off low battery mode on battery settings (not in control center). Then turn off optimized battery charging. If you guys no longer see me here, then it is fixed for me.

I fixed mine by resetting the notification settings in Whatsapp app. But sometimes there is still a delay, but it only happen maybe once in a week. Much better compared to missing every notification.

Do you have Gmail? If so, disable the Gmail app notifications and see if this fixes it.

Hello Guys. I am also experiencing this for quite some time. I already did complete reset of my phone via itunes but the problem persisted. Last night, I did a reset of my Apple password and reselect my region/country. So far the issue has lessen in severity but there are still occasional delays.

I’m not sure if this will help others here but hope you could give it a try.

Thanks.

Do you have an airpods pro? I'm not so sure, and still observing, but can you try removing your airpods by clicking "forget device" on the Bluetooth section. Also, hard reset your airpods by holding the button on the case for 15 seconds and reconnect. I'm still observing and kind of skeptical of it, but I wish this is the cause of this issue 😪😥

If the same thing happens to you with Wi-Fi (without mobile data), then the problem is software (iOS). In my case the problem was fixe by my carrier mobile.

Clearly my solution doesn't apply to everyone. And I don't think Apple engineers read this thread, but we can write in:

There is another much bigger thread where they report the same problem:

Hello. On your ipad, the three boxes on the left side are all widgets. On you iphone, those are all widgets.

Try to remove these and observe if your case improves. 🙂

Thanks.

Turn on the mobile data all the time, it will improve the notifications time significantly but not 100%.

I got the same issue and did like what you did. What SOLVED my issues, is by using VPN. When the VPN is turned on, the notifications are working fine, but when it’s. OFF, all of it are delayed.

VPN application I’ve tried so far is. VPNProxyMaster and VPN Super Unlimited Proxy

I have the same problem. When I open my phone, I’m hot with every notification that was delayed. I bought a new phone and before I reinstalled all my apps, notifications for text messages were timely, no delay at all. Once I reinstalled my apps, the problem started again. I’m thinking some app causes the problem but I don’t know which one.

Same problem here but in my case seems to affect only WhatsApp. Most of the notifications got delayed one hour. I tried everything. I suspect is a server side issue on Apple.

Suspiciously it started to happen after an IOS 14.something upgrade. My AppleID is quite old and so is my WhatsApp account. I guess I've received really LOTS of push notifications since my first iPhone 2G. Don't know if this could be linked. Maybe some overflow on some int16 which should be an int64?

Could be. Indeed I have the same discussion open with WhatsApp support and they assure me it's not on their side.

Also due to the huge number of people reporting push notifications not showing on time on their iPhones, to me something is "stinky" here.

It also could be that there is a bug on Apple APNs which is only triggered under certain circumstances (for instance having sent lots of notifications to a certain user and app).

I have delayed notifications on IPhone 11 but not IPad 7th generation. I do not keep notifications on Lock Screen on either device.. This is since 14.4 update. I’m pretty sure it’s a software issue.

Or maybe delayed notifications are part of the battery saving thing apple products do that we can’t control? Between making the cpu slower, delaying notifications, or shorter battery life, i think I would prefer eventually shortening the battery life since phones are pretty much at a 2-year lifespan these days. What do you guys think? I mean my 11 pro max is a year old and I’m loving the fact that it’s still reaching 24 hours per charge. But that’s the reason notifications are getting delayed, I don’t think it’s worth it. I would prefer just paying for new battery every couple of years or just get a new iPhone(assuming the notif thing gets fixed)

I am having the same problem. Did the same troubleshooting. Contacted Apple support already and talked for about two hours but the problem was not solved.
