Notifications not popping up to my iPhone running iOS 17.1.2

I am running iOS 17.1.2 on iPhone 15 Pro. I have huge issues with notificationf not popping up to my phone, either from messenger, instagram or even my bank app (!!!). All my notification settings are turned on (even in the apps), there are no scheduled notifications, everything should work as intended. I even reinstalled the entire system a week ago and this didn't help. Is there anything I can do?

Hello,

Wow, I sympathize and don't have any definitive answers, but:

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 (or check iPhone 15 Action button for silent mode).

2) How about the volume buttons? Is the volume very low? Move the buttons. Adjust the volume on iPhone

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) Do you have an Apple watch? Many of the notifications will go to the watch instead of the phone. Is the watch in silent mode?

8) 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.

Let us know if you get it figured out.

Good luck.
