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.

Yes have an Apple Watch and have tested with watch on dock and my phone gets notifications again. Definitely seems to be an issue with watch and phone notifications not working correctly. Re the article, prior to new phone and iOS 16 had notifications working on both phone and watch. Should not be notifications only on watch if you have one!!!

Solved, well at least partly, time will tell. After looking at the Microsoft notifications that had not sounded an alert I saw that they came under the heading of 'Unknown senders' I then went into settings and saw that notifications for that category were not turned on, I turned it on and hey presto! if you will excuse the magic connotation, it worked. whether the other non alerting text will now be rectified I will have to wait and see, but I think this is the answer. Hope it helps ...

I get notifications on the lock screen, I click and get to go to the top one. But then I have no way to get back to notifications to get to the rest of them. Very frustrating, and if you ask siri she just tells you what the notifcations are but won't open them for you to view, How in the world do I view my notifications on the new iPhone 14?


Siri won't open them, I can't find a notification center app to open, it is just missing.
