Yesterday I updated my iphone 8 to 14.7.1 and text msgs and text sound notifications not working. I double checked all the setting, rebooted twice and still no notification or sound. In fact, I tested text receive from my wife's iphone and it simply was not received, until I texted her and then she was able to respond. What's going on?
iPhone 8
Same issue with my iPhone12. I've researched and followed many suggested fixes. Nothing is helping. I've missed countless notifications and constantly need to "awaken" my screen to see if there are messages. VERY frustrating!
I ended up contacting Apple Support for my issue. They had me go to:
General>Reset>Reset All Settings
This did fix the issue, that is, until my Apple Watch synced back to my phone. I contacted Apple Support again and they had me go to my Apple Watch app then:
Notifications>**Select the app you need to modify**>Custom>Notifications Off
Doing this stopped my text and call notifications from bypassing my phone. I stop receive them on my watch, but the tones/alerts come through audibly on my phone. I hope this helps (and makes sense)!!
I am also having this issue. If I turn bluetooth off I get notifications for text messages.
I don't want to have to turn bluetooth off since I use my airpods all the time.
Still looking for a solution without having to reset all settings on my phone
I also connected with Apple Support and also followed their advice in regards to disconnecting my Apple Watch notifications. It's too bad that we have to choose texts to phone over notifications to our watch.
I have also notified AppleTech in the hopes that they can work on a fix to this issue.
Hoping this continues to work.
Thanks for your feedback.
Same issue on my iPhone 11 Pro Max for the past three months. I’ve looked everywhere for solutions and tried multiple recommendations with no luck. Hopefully there is a fix soon!
