iPhone 14 notification problems

I’m notification problems on a brand new iPhone 14 pro iOS 16.0.2. No notification sounds at all on many apps. eg news sources not only 3rd party but Apple apps as well. No notifications at all on many apps. sound or otherwise. Some sound notifications sometimes on some apps. Rarely know of a new notification unless I physically check the Notification Centre. Whole phone figured correctly. Apple Genius Bar checked all settings, rebooted etc. etc. and failed to solve the problem. Two and a half hours on the phone with Apple Support working long and hard but also failed to solve the problem. None of the fixes suggested on this thread, by Apple or anywhere else have worked for me. Is it a software problem or could it be a hardware problem with the phone itself? I’m not happy.

I have the same "no notification" of text messages problem and Apple support is of no help. Apple needs to get this fixed. When you press the volume up button, the white line goes up to the maximum at the top and then seems as if the volume slowly diminishes. You can press the volume up button two minutes later and the white bar goes all the way up again when you would think that it would stay at maximum volume. What's up with that?

notifications continue to be inconsistent. For a period of time the sound meant for the messages was on email arrivals with no sound on messages.


I find also annoying is the fact that when the phone is connected in the car by Bluetooth no notifications work.


lastly and most annoying is how Apple Music plays itself and comes up open on my phone and to a music selection from my library. Short of deleting it and the content, I have found no way to stop it.

With such an expensive piece of tech. one would think something as simple as 'Notifications' would work without a blip. Some notifications sound, other's don't . I have noticed in particular any Microsoft notification, from say an email verification text, doesn't make a sound and often doesn't show as a new text. I also don't understand why this particular thread (I have no experience of the other threads however) is only people making the same complaint but there appear to be no answers? Are we all p***ing into the wind? I only use the asterisks in case some poxy bot decides the word is an expletive, as if same were not just part of the English language and a perfectly legitimate use of the language. down with word facism. ooops! gone off subject,
