no sounds for any type of message
Since system update I no longer get any sounds to notify me of incoming message - all messages, text, messenger, WhatsApp etc
iPhone 11, iOS 15

Hello Bushyf,
These are the standards steps for no sound:
1) Is the side silent mute button on? Does any red show? Slide it back and fourth.
2) How about the volume buttons? Is the volume very low? Move the buttons.
3) Is Do Not Disturb on? Go to Settings > Focus > Do Not Disturb. Is it turned on? Check the times.
4) Go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics. Check the Ringer and Alerts slider. Try changing the sound pattern for the type of alert.
5) Go to Settings > Notifications. Is the app listed?
6) Do other sounds work? What about phone calls?
7) Volume summary: Adjust the volume on iPhone
8) Do you have an Apple watch? Many of the notifications will go to the watch instead of the phone.
Note: you can send text messages to yourself for testing purposes.
Good luck.
