iPhone 12 not getting notifications

I have been having the same problem since getting my new 12 mini. Tonight after reading through some of the replies I tried logging out and then logging into the Sell on Etsy app. I am now receiving notifications for that app. Relieved and hoping it works for some of the others.

In case you didn't see my response to another post - try logging out and then back into those apps that require logins.

I'm trying to remember, but when I set up my new iPhone from backup I don't think I had to put in any passwords. So maybe all the logins on the new phone aren't 'valid'?

I too have had this problem and tried many things. The reality is this phone, like the several HomePods I have are full of bugs. So I don’t rely on it. I have a Ring Chime and an old iPad mini with wifi and cellular service for redundancy of important security related notifications. I periodically call support and recently went into the Genius Bar thinking my 12 pro max $$$ is defective - but all tests okay. So I either continue to be a beta tester turning on logging and going back-and-forth with some advisor or I just accept that Apple quality has declined. My fanboy status is already expired.

I am grateful to have found this thread, even though I wish I had found it before I bought the iPhone 12 pro max. It's May 2021, I just got the new phone and have the same issue. Is there any solution that anyone has found because Apple clearly does not have one.

Nope. And I have had mine since day one. What was that October? Don’t remember... but after MONTHS still no resolve and any of the several discussions I have had with Apple about it leads to nothing but denial on their part. Super unacceptable for a $1600 item.

The only option that has worked for me is turning wrist detection off on your watch. This way I get notifications on my phone and watch at same time. Only down side is I now need wrist detection on so I can unlock phone with mask. For me I will just use passcode code and leave wrist detection switched off

I figured it out!! If you go to Settings, Notifications, then the specific app, you should have: locked phone, notifications and banners checked. But then, look under the list of apps under Notifications, it only shows “Banners”…it doesn’t show Sounds and Badges. To fix this, you have to: Delete the App, Download the App again, open the new App, it’ll ask if you want to Enable Notifications?, say Yes. That’ll fix it! Now if you go look at Notifications under Settings, you’ll see it’ll show all: Banners, Sounds, Badges.

Hello everyone,

I've bought the iphone 12 mini in april 1st. And have also the problem about not getting notifications. Like for example, if my phone is blocked, I don't get any notification from whatsapp messages when they arrive.

I do have the airpods version 2, and apple watch recently series 6.

How can I report this to apple?

Best Regards,

Daniel

I believe the problem is your old phone is still on your Apple ID and receiving notifications so this is why the new phone isn't receiving them or all of them. Remove the old phone from your Apple ID and wala ... you're in business.

Worked for me :)

Good Luck!!!

I’m having the same issue. How can this be resolved?

What a useless advisor. We all have the correct settings but it’s still not working. Has anyone found a solution?

I’m having the same issue with my iPhone 12 Pro. Has anyone been able to fix this?

I am having the same issue. I get News notifications on my iPad, but nothing on my iPhone 12 Pro. Hopefully there is a fix in iOS 14.2.

What setting was it?
