No notification on lock screen for messages I have an iPhone 13 Pro Max. After updating to iOS 16.4.1 my message icon on the lock screen has no notification. It used to show the number of unread messages, now nothing. I have done everything I can think of in notifications and messages but still can't figure it out. Can anyone help?

The number of unread messages on your device is not visible when Do Not Disturb is active, as well as when you are using other notification-suppressing Focuses of your own. Ensure that you have all Focuses including Do Not Disturb toggled off. Hope this helps!
