Delayed notifications

I'm on IOS 14, and this also happened when I was on 13. The notifications on my phone are not working and are delayed by sometimes as much as 5 minutes. If someone calls me on FaceTime, it rings for them but my screen doesn't even turn on. Messages sent to me are delayed, on imessages and WhatsApp as well.


Do not disturb is off

Notifications are turned on, all settings.

Bedtime is off

Reset networks settings

Reset my phone once but restored from a cloud backup

Reset all settings


Any help will be extremely appreciated.

iPhone 11, iOS 14

Guys i found a fix to this problem.

I’m using iPhone 8 Plus on 14.4.1, i just did a reset all settings. After that reset, the notification works as it should. And then i changed the keyboard settings in my phone then the problem comes back. After minutes of trying to find the culprit, i think it’s the character preview.


  1. Go to settings
  2. General
  3. Keyboard
  4. Turn character preview to on


This fix it for me, please report back if your problem fixed too!

I have just tried completely turning off mobile data and just using wifi. Some notifications still come late. Even when I’m using the phone(meaning the wifi is definitely working properly)


I am glad that this fix worked for you if it still is. But I think we should not offer this as a solution ‘cause then it would be easy for the devs to say “there we go they found a fix” and not bother trying to figure out what’s actually wrong

I am facing the same problem. I already updated my iPhone 12 to the latest OS but still having problems receiving real time notification especially with my LINE app. I am also having a hard time with whatsapp but not as bad as my LINE app. I have tried most of the things I found in this discussion but I can’t seem to get it right. The one thing I have no problem at all is receiving calls by cellular data. Is using a third-party app to clean my phone’s working? I’m afraid it will only make my phone’s condition worse.
