notifications wont show up, but all are turned on

bonniebug Said:

"it’s not that I’m not hearing a noise, it’s that I’m not receiving ANY kind of notification. nothing shows up in my notification center save for the apps I mentioned above. it’s like the apps arent even installed (but if I open them they work, obviously). I have lockscreen, notification center, and banners turned on for every app, as well as the default alert tone, and NOTHING comes through at all"

"notifications wont show up, but all are turned on: […]deleting and reinstalling the individual affected apps — which did! I imagine a full wipe and reload wouldve also fixed this issue, but I’m fine with individually deleting and reinstalling the apps I care to receive notifications from thank you for your help!”

You are welcome!

Excellent job troubleshooting!

"notifications wont show up, but all are turned on: I’m not sure what screen time would do to stop notifications (I’ve never used it and so have no downtime or limits set) but I turned it off and I’m still not receiving anything :("

Troubleshooting Not Receiving Notifications:

A. Disable "Do Not Disturb:

You mentioned in your original reply that disabling Do Not Disturb did not work. Regardless, here it is for reference...

How to Disable Do Not Disturb:

1. Open: Control Center (Swipe down from the top-right corner of the screen).
2. Tap: Focus
3. Tap: Do Not Disturb (so that it is greyed-out)

B. Clear the Cashes:

Clear the storage named "System Data" (formerly called "Other"). It basically contains unnecessary files such as caches that are used for system ease of use - all of which gather over time. Use my User Tip: How to Clear "Other" in your iPhone's Storage - Use Backup - User Tips. Caches would be being used for remembrance of application use.

No success?

C. Contact Apple Support:

If neither of the above works, then contact Appel Support for assistance...

Apple Contact Info:

• Contact Us - Choose Locations
• Proceed from there, as necessary
• Why the Wait:
• Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due to lots of calls. With the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through :)

I have no do not disturb/focus things turned on. I’ve restarted my phone. I’ve updated my ios. nothing has worked so far. what else can I do?"

Troubleshooting Notifications:

If Text Notifications are not occurring (as expected), then refer to the following...

• Hearing Notifications:

Make it a quick ding sound, rather than a few seconds. If it was sent at the exact same time, expect the notifications to overlap. Sometimes, it just doest make a ding, and there's nothing to do about it.

• Doublecheck your settings: Use Notifications on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support

• Check what is Allowed: Notifications: Use Do Not Disturb on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
