Twitter Alerts Not Updating in Notification Centre On My iPhone

Hi, I am hoping someone will be able to help me.


I have an iPad 2 and an iPhone 4. Both devices are running on the most recent iOS software and both have the notification centres and apps within the notification centre set up the same way. But all of a sudden I have stopped receiving twitter notifications on my iPhone. My account is fine and I can send tweets from the phone (tweeting from the gallery and tweeting from safari etc).


The notifications come through on my iPad as normal but the iPhone is displaying twitter notifications from 5 days ago but nothing recent despite having been sent many today alone. When I get a tweet sent to me, it alerts me on the iPad but not on the phone at all. Last week, it was notifying me on my iPhone the same way as my iPad. I get all other notifications on my iPhone and iPad as normal, Facebook, eBay, iMessage and email. All of those are set up in the same way on both devices and notifications come in at pretty much the exact same time, as usual.


Twitter has just stopped on one device.


Going in to the Notification settings on the phone you can see it set up the same way as my iPad. I have deleted my account from my phone numerous times, hoping that when I re-enter my account details it will right itself but to no avail.


I haven't done anything, it just stopped. The only way of knowing I have even have twitter messages or notifications when I am away from my iPad is because I get an email alert.


Is anyone having the same issue? Has anyone heard of this problem? Has something turned off on my phone that I am overlooking? Can anyone offer any advice on how to correct this problem?


Many thanks!

iPhone 4, iOS 5.0.1

I am bumping this because now they have completely stopped now on both devices.


I've have had multiple people tweet me today and yesterday and not a single notification is appearing on either device.


Again both devices are iOS5.0.1 both devices are logged in correctly to twitter. I can send tweets from iOS5's interface (gallery, safari etc) with no issues on both devices. But I am yet to receive a tweet notification on my iPhone (last notification is well over 10 days old) and now my iPad 2 (last notification is over 2 days old).


Neither device has had the twitter app in the notification centre messed with or turned off. Both are on signed in and sound is on, banners are on, "show in notification centre" is on as is "show in lock screen".


Please help!

I'm replying to bump this up. I have the same issue. A few days ago I created a Twitter account and started following some folks. I'm receiving plenty of tweets, but notification services are not working at all: no badge, no lock-screen messages, no real-time notification. I have provision all of these items and nothing is working. Assistance greatly appreciated.

I'm bumping this up again as push alerts have now stopped on the eBay app as well. They just stopped like the others. I've deleted the apps, and installed them again and still no push alerts. All the settings are correct and still nothing....


Could someone PLEASE pay attention to this thread? I've searched and searched for a resolution and had no luck.

No there has been no resolution or a response from any apple expert. I've done a complete factory restore as well and still nothing.


I am sure it's an iOS issue. It's the iOS twitter push notifications that stopped working for me and then shortly after the Facebook ones.


I find it infuriating that this thread has people coming on here saying they have the same problem and yet nothing or no one from Apple can help. Again factory restore doesn't help so what will?
