Hello lalamb72,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. Sounds like you're experiencing issues with your Calendar notifications. If so, we'd like to assist and help troubleshoot this issue with you. There could be various reasons why this issue might be occurring. Let's follow the steps below to isolate this issue further:


1.) Double check your notifications settings for the Calendar app and make sure that everything is correctly set up: Change notification settings on iPhone - Apple Support

2.) If everything is set up correctly. Close the Calendar app and refresh things by restarting your iPhone:

3.) Some notifications do require an active cellular or Wi-Fi connection. Try connecting to a different Wi-Fi network to isolate a possible network issue that might be the root cause for this notification issue.

4.) Check your Focus settings: Use Do Not Disturb with Focus on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

5.) Install any pending updates that might be available for your iPhone. This can usually help with unique issues, since updates include fixes. Just in case, this link can guide you through the update process: Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


1.)Back up your device using iCloud or your computer.
2.)Plug your device into power and connect to the internet with Wi-Fi.
3.)Go to Settings > General, then tap Software Update.
4.) If you see more than one software update option available, choose the one that you want to install.
5.) Tap Install Now. If you see Download and Install instead, tap it to download the update, enter your passcode, then tap Install Now. If you don't know your passcode, learn what to do: If you forgot your iPhone passcode - Apple Support
