Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
When i get text messages and I'm using my phone it doesn't alert me even when I went to the notification center and put it as alert. This has only happened with iOS 7 not with the previous update.
iPhone 4, iOS 7
forgot to say that alerts stopped when I upgraded to ios 10 on iPhone 6
For me, the solution was that the "do not disturb" was turned on for a specific person. Of course it was the person I texted the most! It turns out there was a half moon by that specific person's name in the messaging app which I didn't notice at first. My solution: messaging app --> find person with half moon by name and select them --> press little i with a circle around it in top right --> undo do not disturb.
Finally!! Thank you, this worked for me. I don't know how it got switched to DO NOT DISTURB!
Fixed mine by turning on Lock Sound button in Sounds in Sett
