Why am I not receiving notifications at all for iMessages ?
iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 14
Hello,
Hmm, it could be lots of reasons. The usual one is that "Do Not Disturb" is active.
These are the standard steps for sound issues:
1) Is the side silent mute button on? Does any red show? Slide it back and fourth.
2) How about the volume buttons? Is the volume very low? Move the buttons.
3) Is Do Not Disturb on? Go to Settings > Focus > Do Not Disturb. Is it turned on? Check the times.
4) Go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics. Check the Ringer and Alerts slider. Try changing the sound pattern for the type of alert.
5) Go to Settings > Notifications. Is the app listed?
6) Do other sounds work? What about phone calls? Music?
7) Volume summary: Adjust the volume on iPhone
8) Do you have an Apple watch? Many of the notifications will go to the watch instead of the phone.
9) Many notifications are partially muted when the phone is unlocked and you are using it vs. locked.
Note: you can send text messages to yourself for testing purposes.
Good luck.
