Q: Unable to setup push notifications for the app because the app doesnt appear in the list

I have tried these suggestions and also uninstalling and reinstalling the app/s but it doesn't seem to work. This is not a 'one off' issue. A similar issue exists when we try to share/send/forward a photo from another app(for example) the required app doesnt appear in the list.

If you don't see notifications for a specific app

To get notifications, you need to be connected to a Wi-Fi or cellular network. If you’re not getting notifications for a specific app, try these steps:

  1. Make sure that the app supports notifications. Go to Settings > Notifications, select the app, and make sure that Notifications are turned on.
  2. Make sure that you’re signed in to your Apple ID on your iOS device. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores and enter your Apple ID and password.
  3. Make sure that Do Not Disturb is turned off. Go to Settings > Do Not Disturb and tap Manual if it's turned on.
  4. If you’ve recently installed an app or restored from a backup, open the app to start getting notifications.

 

Can Apple please place a (add) '+' icon on the notifications screen so we can add the required app manually?
