Delayed notifications

What an embarrassment for Apple. I have an iPhone, iPad, and Mac Mini. Notifications on the iPad and Mac Mini are minutes behind those on the iPhone. Everything from Messages, Ring doorbell notifications, etc., etc.

There is no reason to screw with the phone or settings. and it's not the carrier. It's clearly Apple not admitting they have a software issue and won't admit and fix it. I think my Apple computers, the station computers, our iwatches are all going to be sold and we are going to switch to something else. I am also going to recommend to the city I work for that we get rid of all the Apple products in our next meeting. This city is up for a new contract and this would be a great time to get rid of Apple.

Yeah same here, I also think it’s part of their battery optimization. Part of the reason why notifications in iOS 15 gets an update. By implementing the summary notifications feature, they don’t have to delay the notifications. I really hope this is the case and yeah I agree with you on shortening the battery life instead of delaying the notifications.

I was willing to try a sim switch, as suspected, that was a no-go.

new iPad- no and/or delayed notifications

new iPhone 12 no and/or delayed notifications

old 10- worked until a restore- delayed or no notifications but out of the 3 devices it still gets the most notifications.

i really thought this was a technical support forum. I’m not here as Apple’s cheerleader…trust me but when do we stop taking up space complaining. Take action, offer a tip, change devices. I’m sure you already have the feedback link.

yes, my notifications are delayed. Yes, it’s a problem in my life.

Relax Ca_Poppy1 Relax....If it bothers you then don't come to the forum. Until you and one other came n the board we were comparing notes such as iWatch, certain apps, our experience with Apple and the stores, etc. Second, we are posting and filling out the service form as well in hope Apple will take this serious. Again, no need for you to participate if you think this is only complaining.

FYI…that word relax, unfortunately is not always received well.

To real answers, bug fixes and the magic update that will be the only thing that actually resolves this issue. If and when that happens. Seems like it’s been quite awhile now.

But that’s kinda how batteries work. Laptops, cars, tablets, phones, even portable chargers. All batteries age and eventually have to be replaced. That’s why phones have to be upgraded every few years.

People here are just sharing experiences and frustrations. It is a forum of sorts after all. Don’t worry about space being used up, cause when an actual solution does come up, I’m pretty sure it’ll eliminate the need to post any more experiences of the same case. People here are just keeping this thread alive hoping it gets noticed(if it hasn’t been already) and let the moderators know this problem is still present. Otherwise it won’t be solved.

I hear you and actually agree that type of post can be valid. There are constant reminders to focus on technical support issues. This most certainly qualifies as that but so many of these posts in relation to the issue are about people’s frustrations not workarounds or solutions. Which is it? But then here I am. Lots type no solution or workaround offered by this User either. So, off for the night ( unless of course I have a technical issue). :)

That’s my rant.

It cannot be part of the battery saving, because an elementary part of a phone is being lost. For example, if someone calls you by Facetime, Whatsaps, Skype, etc., the notification will not arrive and you will lose the call. It is clearly not a new feature, it is a serius bug.

By “blocked” I take it that you mean not in use for a while? It happens WHILE I’m using the phone, so I don’t think so.

I literally get missed notifications from messenger, gmail and teams while scrolling through facebook.

Besides why would the phone automatically use mobile data when that uses more battery than connecting through wifi?

Yes but the phone does have a setting to turn on and off the background app refresh of each app. I’m not saying it’s true, but what if apple is forcing these apps to not connect and retrieve data to save battery? I mean years ago there was this news that they intentionally slowed down the phones to make the battery last as long, this wouldn’t really be that different. It’s not a feature, but it’s not really a bug either IF they’re intentionally doing it

I can pretty much understand what you’re saying but upgrading a phone every few years doesn’t make much sense to me. And what I mean by that is my phone is only 14 months old I’m not about to upgrade because of this problem to the next level and I have the iPhone X

Sure Poppy, I'll just pop up with a fix. You must have a lot of time on your hands trolling this thread. I have been very active in the beginning of explaining and discussing the issues long before everyone has noted the same issues. I also discussed my higher tier comments from Apple, my comments with a tech, twice, at an apple store as well as friends who have the same issue trying to find something in common. I have been very active in trying to figure this out. You on the other hand has obvious been trolling the threads and jumped in this one with you useless comments. So yes, relax and stay out of other's business unless you have something constructive to offer. Go to another forum and look for your green lights.
