I know this happens every year and there’s basically never a fix you just have to wait for an update but I might as well try: I haven’t been getting any notifications when my iPhone is off. No sound, haptic, and it doesn’t go to my Apple Watch like usual. Don’t try to tell me to turn notifications on that’s not the problem

Original Title: Notifications not working in iOS 26
iPhone 13, iOS 26
Your original post is confusing. You will never get notifications on your phone if it is turn off. It doesn't do anything if it's off.
Moving on. Have you restarted both devices since you updated? If you haven't, do that now. Then, make sure you don't have any Focuses turned on.
For Standby, make sure you have notifications enabled. Settings>Standby>Show Notifications
Have the same problem. Iphone 14 pro with ios26.
scary that apple dosent have fixed this issue!!
Same here, 15pro. But, only on iMessages.
yes but Zedairder is wearing an Watch. Not getting notifications when locked is to be expected.
Still same problem after installing 26.0.1
is it so hard to fix this !?!
Guys, hi. How i can offer my idea to Apple? Little feature.
Like most companies, Apple does not accept unsolicited product ideas for legal reasons.
Alarm volume is inaudible. Sometimes cuts off sound within 3 seconds. Text messages have no notification sounds. No DVD & no buttons. All occurs on iOS 26 on iPhone 17 pro.
Me and many other users have issue with push notifications. To reproduce this you should do this steps:
I don't have Apple Watch. This bug reproduces on iOS 18.7 and 26. As I think iPhone goes to deep sleep after 10+ minutes after it locked and don't get push notifications. I've tried everything: many of settings, DFU without backup, but nothing helps to resolve this issue. Apple, pay attention, please, cause this bug is very annoying and present on iOS 18.7 (that is the last for many devices) and latest iOS 26. Thanks!
For other users: type applefeedback:// in Safari and make feedback about this problem. More feedbacks - more chances that Apple will fix this.
