How do I make notifications stop reappearing in the notification center after I have already cleared them? How do I make notifications stop reappearing in the notification center after I have already cleared them? Wether I clear the notification or tap on it to view it, they all reappear at a random time in the future. It could be anywhere from a few minutes to a few days. One time some text notifications stayed for nearly 300 days after clearing them more than weekly.

Deleted unread texts showing notifications I’ve been using my focus modes recently and discovered a possible bug. Id prefer Scenario 1- regardless of focus mode being turned on. Scenario 1: Not using a focus mode. WHEN you have an unread message THEN a notification flag appears IF you delete the unread message without marking it read THEN the notification flag disappears. ✅ Scenario 2: Using a focus mode (mine specifically hides messages from A person). WHEN you have an unread message THEN a notification flag appears IF you delete the unread message THEN the notification flag remains active and does not disappear. ❌ To solve this, you need to recover the unread message AND open the message.

View, dismiss, clear, and mute notifications

Handle a notification you receive while using another app: Tap to view it, then swipe up to dismiss it. Clear notifications: Swipe left on a notification or group of notifications, then tap Clear or Clear All.
