Sometimes there's no sound on notifications after iOS9 update

Maybe mine was a fluke with the whatsapp but neveraless, it is still fixed and working 100% I really hope the others can find easy solutions. Don't believe the grass is greener crazy - It would be a shame to dump your iPhone and return to Android.

HI.

I have not read all the post, but maybe some members here have some good news about the 9.2 beta. ( about the notification issue :-( :-( .........

My wife and me have both the notification issue....... Every day we restart our iphones 1-3 times to keep notifications on. :-(

( My phone is never on BT , but stille the issue )

Have a great day :-)

Hi there,

I was facing the same problem that there is no sound nıtification from Whatsapp-Viber etc... For me the solution was the facebook applications sound setting was silent after increasing the sound while this app is open my sound notifications started to appear back. I hope this will help.

Thank you. This worked for me, strangely enough!

"i solved this (now running iOS 9.2 on my iPhone 4S) by resetting the network on my iPhone.

when doing this, first make sure "Do Not Disturb" is turned off - Settings > Do Not Disturb

Then reset the network on your iPhone - Settings > General > Reset > choose Reset Network Settings.

That's all I did and it returned all my Notification sounds etc.

I hope this helps"

me too i have to restart almost everyday to get sound notifications back... come on apple this is a big issue, fix it!!

ios 9.1 iphone 6s

I've been having this problem since a previous update.

I used to use an app called "Pill Monitor" to remind me to take medication - it was one of the most useful things the phone did.

This hasn't worked for a good while now. The notifications appear on the screen but it doesn't come out of idle or make any sound.

Upgraded to 9.2 last night. Now the notifications don't work at all.

Off in search of how to jailbreak the iPhone and revert back to iOS 8 or 9 - does anyone know with certainty which was the last version where the notifications worked properly?

in my experience, every time I update my iPhone (beta), I would do hard reset thereafter because many people solve their problem using that method, this is highly recommend if something goes wrong.

for this question, you have to check if you accidentally enable mute button (AssistiveTouch) or "do not disturb", if not, then probably you have your. volume turned down to zero!

with ios 9.2 notification sound works but the volume is very low compared to the ringer volume... and there's no separate volume control (apple and control...)

Thank you, this happened to me and your explanation was spot on - the Do Not Disturb "moon" was activated for one contact but not the others. Problem fixed!

This worked for me, but erased all the network passwords I have accumulated over the last four years.

MY iphone 5c was only vibrating most of the time when I should have been getting notifications. It has been puzzling me for a long time. As soon as I read the posts about Bluetooth I realised what the problem was. The phone was connecting to a Bluetooth receiver in the house, and muting the sounds. I turned the Bluetooth off and the sounds are back to normal. Many thanks to the person who came up with this solution.

ios 9.2

still no notification after 24h (not sure exactly)

bluetooth is off

and i'm talking about app notification, like ebay twitter sms... no "do not disturb" or mute

Dtmark,

I am still using iOS 8.4.1 to avoid all this B/S. I still get notifications, so you might want to revert to that, if all else fails. I can't guarantee it would work for you though.

- using iPhone 6

I have no sound notification when phone is locked. To fix this I went to Settings, sounds and turned off "Lock Sounds". I don't get the lock sound now when I lock the phone but that's better than no notification sounds.

lock sound toggle no worky here lol

IMHO It is a do not disturb issue. it gets turned on when it is not supposed to be on. I have this feature come on between 1am and 6am. i have gotten up for work and the half moon is still there at 7am. I go into the quick control panel and toggle the half moon and it stays on screen no matter how many times i toggle it. Then i noticed after a while the moon disappears making me THINK it is off but it is not. This is why alert and the ringer are silent for me randomly (though ringer rare and it appears people in my contact list get through but no one else does which is how i have the scheduled do not disturb set up and another reason i think it is a do not disturb problem)

Also i decided to test the opposite. toggle the do not disturb many times but leave the half moon there. Now text my phone from another phone and the sound GETS THROUGH when it should not but let the phone sit for awhile and then text and sound does NOT get through.

this leads me to believe the feature is randomly getting toggled somehow behind the scenes and the graphic side of it is not seeing it.

Low level stuff.

Those that never use the feature never see the half moon on screen but i bet randomly activated (you just do not know it visually) thus cutting sound.

i just installed 9.2.1 beta im crossing my fingers lol
