Notifications muted when iPhone asleep
My iPhone SE on iOS 15.6 was not giving visible, audible, or vibration notifications when the phone was asleep. I checked and re-checked all possible notification settings. Then I found this solution on the Apple Developers forum which magically fixed it:
- “Settings -> Sounds and Haptics
- Drag the “Ringers and Alerts” volume slider to minimum, then drag it to maximum, then back to your desired volume.
That's it; the volumes of notifications are now well-matched to the ringer volume.”
This seems to be an Apple bug, and an unusual workaround. I hope posting this saves someone from the same frustration I had. ✌️
