Locked Screen sound problems

When my screen is locked I do not get alert sounds for Messages or Emails. Phone will ‘ring’.

Hey SonoraFrank,


We understand you're not getting sound alerts for the Mail and Messages app when the screen is locked. Start with making sure "Sounds" is enabled for those apps: Use notifications on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.


If you continue to have issues, make sure your iPhone is up-to-date: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.


Take care.
