Q: Repeated notifications when unlocking

hi all,

everytime I unlock my iPhone6, all the notifications received meanwhile are repeated, sounds included. This is very annoying. Is there a way to avoid it? (it is worth to say that this would be very useful for the AppleWatch. Everytime I leave the room and I come back after a while, it would be VERY useful to have the red dot of my AW switched on if the iPhone generated notifications meanwhile. Instead, I must take the iPhone off the pocket of the jacket every time!)

iPhone 6, iOS 9.1

    Hi Stefano964,

    I see that your notifications and sound alerts are duplicating when you unlock your iPhone 6. I'd like to help you get this to work as expected again.

    Before you begin troubleshooting this, please create a backup of your data using the instructions found here:

    How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support


    If you haven't already, try restarting your iPhone to see if this unexpected behavior persists. Take a look at this website for more information:

    Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

    Once you're done, test to see if you still notice this issue. If so, it may be best to reset your device settings as a next step. This will reset all of your iPhone’s settings like Display & Brightness, Wallpaper, Sounds, etc. It will also remove previously used Wi-Fi networks and passwords, so please be sure to have your Wi-Fi password on hand. To complete this step, navigate to Settings > General > Reset, then tap the option to "Reset All Settings".

    Cheers!
