Notifications not working after iOS 17 Update

My Ip12 pro max didn’t get any notifications after updating. Checked all the notifications settings all are enabled. Frustrated by this, I ‘reset all settings’ in general. After finished, I go one by one on the app where the first time you open the app after rest, there will be a pop-up box where it asked you to either allow notifications or not and click allow on the apps that I wanted to be notified and clicked do not allow on the apps that I don’t want to be notified. It’s been working fine. But it will be a haste since you need to set up everything again just like new phone though the data will not be lost.

UPDATE: As of today and IOS 17.2.1 this bug/ issue has been fixed. We are now getting sound notifications even if you select only sound notifications. This was surely something that apple broke when IOS 17 was released

Go into the watch app on your phone, look for and open passcode, then look for and turn OFF wrist detection.

Sorted the problem out for both myself and my wife's phone (and watch) - and works with phone locked/screen not on.

If your phone is connected to your Apple Watch, change the settings on your watch from “Mirror Your IPhone” to “Custom”. I did it and now I am getting my alerts

After the iOS 17 update, I was not receiving iMessage notifications with sound unless the app was open on my phone. I had to enable iMessage notifications on my Lock Screen before I was able to receive the sound notifications. Enabling just Banners was not enough to get the text sounds on my iPhone SE, but enabling just the Lock Screen was.

I hope this is just a bug because I don't want iMessage notifications on my Lock Screen.

In messages click on top under contact as if you are going to look for shared pictures. There you will find "Hide Alerts" - make sure its turned off - if its green, switch it off. It has to be "grey". Button to the left.

I had the same issue and this fixed it.

Since the IOS17 update my notification sounds disappeared. I went into the apple store today only to find out that if I want notification sounds then I must have the banners enabled in order for the notification sounds to work.

This is extremely frustrating because since my first Iphone (Iphone 4) my banners have always been disabled due to privacy and I never had any issues getting only the sound notifications up until now.

I hope apple fixes this back to how it was specially for privacy due to reasons.

Hi I’m not sure if you’ve solved this. This happened to me as well after I got the new 15. If you have an Apple Watch, turns out you can no longer get dual notifications on both your watch and phone. So you have to turn off the message notifications on your watch or you will only get them on your watch. Another workaround is disconnecting Bluetooth but that means you won’t have access to AirPlay, airdrop, etc. Hope this helps.

This has been a problem since upgrading to iOS 17 but I have finally resolved it. You have to have at least one of the three banner option selected for the sound notification to work. In previous iOS versions this was not the case

Passing along what worked for me, as this issue was driving me crazy for weeks, changing every imaginable setting, resetting, etc.

I signed out of Messages on every other device. Not just turned off message forwarding — actually signed out from my laptops and iPad.

For me it did not matter if I wasn't using the device to send/receive messages — because the devices were not showing messages being received and I have never sent a message using anything but my phone.

So give it a try — make sure no other Apple device is using your Messages account.

What I have found is that if you do not have an alerts setting selected (Lock Screen, Notification Center, and/or Banners) your sounds will not work. As soon as I select one of these tada sounds started working for texts, snaps, etc. I personally like just the sound notifications without an alert type. Guess Apple feels like you need them.

I have solved this issue for me and my wife. We both have Apple Watches and all it took, after months of trying to find a solution, was to open the watch app and check the “send to Notification Center “ under Messages. I still haven’t figured out how to get Notifications on my watch and phone, but, at least it works on the phone again when the phone is locked.

Go into the watch app on your phone, look for and open passcode, look for and turn OFF wrist detection.

Worked for myself and my wife's phone and now getting audible sms notification on phone and vibrate sms notification on watch at same time. Also works when phone is locked.
