No sound when text message received - iPhone 14 Pro Max

Hello,

My brand new iPhone 14 Pro Max does not make any sound when text message is received. I tried everything everyone suggested on the internet net. From checking the notifications settings, silent toggle, Reset, restart, switching bluetooth on/off, and other suggestions. Nothing helped. I am assuming this is a software issue, since its not only me who is having this problem. Can some please tell me if apple actually looking into this and maybe planning to roll out a software update with this fix. Its becoming annoying. Some suggest turning the bluetooth off. Why would I turn the bluetooth off if everything around iPhone works with bluetooth (headset, watch, car radio....)

Apple support please give a good answer. If this keeps happening I guess I will have to go and return it and get a new iphone.

Thanks in advance!

Hello jovajon,



Thanks for choosing the Apple Support Communities. Wee see you've tried quite a few things. Let's rule out all other possibilities and see if we can resolve this.


  1. Check to make sure you have no Focus settings enabled. - Use Focus on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
  2. Make sure you are full updated to the latest version of iOS which is 16.1 - Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


If issues persist or these didn't help, and if this is happening with all of your contacts, it may be best to reach out to Apple Support.


Apple Support


Cheers!
