IOS 15.1 not receiving text message notifications on lock screen

I tried the reset and it only fixed the issue a little bit. It lets me see anybody text that I don’t have pinned in my messages but anyone who is pinned I won’t get the notifications. I tried to unpin them and nothing changed.

This problem has been going on for too long and it’s absurd that apple can’t seem to fix the issue. Me and my girlfriend have been having the same issue for almost a year now. I’ll be waiting for a text and get no notifications only to find that they sent something an hour ago. Both got new phones in the past few months and nothings changed. The texts don’t even show up on the notifications tab when you swipe from the top and all my message notifications are on.

I have this issue with ONE contact and of course it is the person that I text the most. My GF thought I was ignoring her or that I was being "shady". Thanks for that Apple.

I do not have an Apple watch, but my GF does. So maybe it's a watch issue on her side? Not sure, but she gets all my texts and I get none of hers.

I have tried every suggested fix and nothing works. This is obviously an IOS issue that needs to be resolved ASAP. If this starts to impact my work I will have no choice but to switch to a more reliable OEM.

The "squeaky wheel", that should the media ABC,NBC,CBS,FOX,CNN...maybe then Apple might do something about this issue.

Doing a "hard reset" is beyond my expertise and backing up everything is time consuming over a thousand dollars for a phone that doesn't reliably receive messages? Maybe Apple should have MORE settings for one application (joking). I mean make sure this is turned on, this is off, that is on,..it's a rabbit hole Apple has created

I’m having a similar problem. Focus is disabled. Suddenly I stop getting notifications and all system sounds abruptly stop. Rebooting every time is getting tiresome. Please fix the problem with this release. We are 3 releases later (15.4.1) and the problem persists.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! You fixed my problem. I wasn’t getting text alerts from my daughter and discovered that somehow conversations with her were set to “hide alerts”. After a month of this, finally fixed!

I happened to turn on Focus a few days ago to see if anything would happen. 10 minutes later a text message comes through notification on and everything. It’s working! I think. Nope. That was a one time fluke. Nothing coming in since, focus on or off

I've been having this problem with text messaging notifications even before the new OS. I think Applevhad a fundamental problem either the programming because they are adding too much garbage. It's like trying to figure out how to turn on the headlights in a high end car. There are too many bells and whistles. Maybe Apple should consider a slimmed down OS for us simpletons?

Every once in awhile I will get a notification for a text, like maybe once a week. It tends to be when I’m not on the phone, but there is no consistency. I’ve tried everything I can think of, it’s definitely not issue with settings- software problem for sure.

Since I updated my iOS on my iPhone 10 I am not able to get the alert tones for messages I have tried everything and nothing will work. I have been on every website and none of them have answered my question. How do I get the town to ring when I get a message

I have a similar issue, no alerts for text messages regardless of screen lock state. Resetting Network settings did not fix it. I am on iOS 15.1. Any progress for this issue?

I started having similar issues but not only with text messages but some other apps as well where notifications are no longer shown on Lock Screen. I am on iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 15.1.1

sorry my notifications were on, still having the problem. Thanks for the reply

I am having the same issue. Reset did not resolve.

My husband is having the same issue. This is frustrating. Apple Support we need further instructions
