My swipe down feature has stopped working. When I swipe down I get the search menu (sometimes) but not the Notification Center. Have done a hard resent and still nothing.

That actually is the problem. When I swipe down for the Notification Center it brings up the search instead

What exactly does the screen you get look like?


When I swipe from the top, I get a search bar at the very top, and the notifications below that. If there are no Notifications to show I get the same search bar with a "No Notifications" text below it. The Notification screen will have a search bar.

If I swipe from lower than the clock at the top, I get the search screen.

Hello,


Are you following the steps correctly? The steps are:


Use Notification Center

Notification Center shows your most recent alerts, like a calendar event or a missed call.

To view Notification Center, swipe down from the top of any screen, including the Lock Screen. Tap an alert in Notification Center to open it. Or tap User uploaded file to clear the alert.


Swipe to search

Trying to find a contact, email, or nearby restaurant? Quickly find what you’re looking for from the Home screen on your device.

Swipe down from the middle of the Home screen.
