Hi there everyone. I just managed to fix the trouble for myself for iPhone 7 plus. My "mail" notifications didn't seem to work. I was only able to check new emails when I manually click on the app. So after wide struggle I realised IOS 10.2 have no longer push notifications for "mails" . I checked the settings and managed to fix it somehow it does notify me couple of minutes later. This is how I did.
Before u carry on I would to tell u guys that notifications are classified now as "push" and "fetch. This new IOS seems to be very advance and I realised that only iCloud enables push notifications. Push notifications notifies us immediately and "FETCH" notifications is when new notifications are collected and sent into timeframe, example fetch new data is turned on for every 15 minutes. So every 15 minutes, these fetched new notifications such as emails they are notified every 15 minutes or earlier than that is possible too. I do get them before that timeframe. Seems apple is trying to save our battery life. Haha!
Okay here we go
- go to SETTING
- go to mail, contacts, calendar, notes . Click MAIL
- click ACCOUNTS
- click "FETCH NEW DATA" .
- "push" should be turned on
- at the bottom fetch should be "EVERY 15 MINUTES" (shouldn't be *manual)
Now test and have patience, I get my email in 2-3 minutes :)
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Pooja.
