iPhone not getting text notifications

Sounds similar to what I'm experiencing. I reset the phone yesterday and message alerts came through and the screen lit up. This morning, nothing again. Made a purchase at the supermarket this afternoon and got a customary credit card alert and the screen lit up (as it always did before iOS11.x.y.z). I don't have time to experiment with various settings so the issue appears to come and go depending on my phone's mood.

I'm a bit tired these constant OS updates for what appears to be update's sake. I need RELIABLE tools that I can depend on to help me get my job done, Apple.

I too have this problem. It’s very frustrating...essentially defeating the purpose of texts. I was thinking they would fix the problem with 11.3. I guess we’ll have to wait for 11.4. I have an ip6.

Have tried every solution offered in this thread and not one of them works. I have a 7plus with updated software 11.2.1 I'm not sure why apple doesn't respond, but I won't have to worry about it, once I switch back to an Android phone.

I have a new iPhone 8 and an iPad Pro and have the same issue on each device. I did not have the issue on my old iPhone SE and iPad. I had Blue tooth on those devices. I use my Blue tooth with my fitness tracker and my car so i don't want to to turn them off. It should be compatible. My IOS is current at 11.2.1. I am very disappointed with this. In the past I could choose to silence/unsilence text sounds by the side button.

I will join the list of upset iPhone users whose phones will not give notifications with paired with Bluetooth. My profession demands that I be connected to my phone while driving via Bluetooth and be able to receive Text Message notifications. No sound except for incoming phone calls through my trucks speakers.

iPhone 5SE with 11.2.1

Surely Apple support staff read these forums?

Why am I not getting no notifications from my message and why is it that I'm senting a message but it when threw but it's still show that I'm still senting the message there is a big problem here and I need you to fix the issue. And when I exit the message it's deleted every message and it goes blank ???? I need who ever to fix my iPhone cause I can't even get a update to my phone??! Can somebody help

Same issue here. Brand new iPhone X, current iOS, no Bluetooth devices...Receiving alerts of new messages when phone is locked works <50% of the time. Went to Apple Store where they did nothing but wipe the phone and do a restore. That did nothing but waste my time. Is anyone at Apple listening?!?

It sad to see the list growing and still no fix from Apple. Having tried most of the fixes offered by others, I am still in the same situation as you. I will not turn off my bluetooth. That defeats the purpose of having that feature and would necessitate turning it on everytime you need bluetooth. Alll was fine until several weeks ago.

I cannot believe Apple has not fixed this. We all want the best and thought Apple was it. I have the phone, watch, iPad and mac air. I want to get messages at least on my phone and watch. Just returned home, no notifications while out, but when I looked at my phone ten text messages.

Have the same problem - no vibration for texts in locked screen. I'll share with you that one can use the Apple Watch for such notifications. Very annoyed. To Apple; a locked iPhone in my pocket while at work is very much needed and was a useful feature in previous OS releases. Quality and design for intended customer use seems to be getting less attention lately.

As most of the users have said here, all dnd settings are correct and if u select hide alert for a particular user as u did by accidentally hitting that while deleting that particular persons thread it does not mute all notifications as is being reported in this thread.

Wow - can't believe this is a thing. I was sure it was something I was doing until I decided to look into it today.

THOUSANDS of dollars on Apple products, with four devices set up to alert me to messages, and I miss them???

NO EXCUSE.

Mindblowing that Apple is charging $800- $1149 for their phones, crowing about record profits, and yet show no indication of being concerned about basic functionality.

Maybe they could pull a couple of people off the animated talking poo team to work on it?

As an update, they sent me a new X and I set it up as a new phone as they requested which means you lose all ur texts which given they were sympathy texts I sort of wanted to keep them so spent hours copying them manually. Anyway same exact issue. Please people if your phone is under warranty, call apple do the trouble shooting and then request a new phone until this starts costing them money, they are going to I claim each time someone calls with the problem, “oh we have never heard of this problem” as they did when I called and mentioned the thousands of users with the exact same issue on their own discussion boards. If only an news article would come out on this they would all of a sudden find a solution I am sure. Ask for a replacement phone and keep asking for one until it is addressed by apple. They are selling a phone claiming Bluetooth capabilities yet it either functions asn expensive Bluetooth dongle or a phone with no Bluetooth capabilities. Not to mention apple watches are rendered worthless if u switch off ur Bluetooth. Send in your phone for replacement and keep doing it until they come up with a solution. And no the new phone set up as new did not solve the problem. So I will be contacting them again to request another phone until it is fixed.

While that’s a great suggestion if you had gone through the pages of people posting here it isn’t relevant. Each one of us with this issue has stated that the dnd both in settings and individual texts are not set. This is a systemic Bluetooth issue where if Bluetooth is on we do not receive any notifications whatsoever. Has nothing to do the do not disturb settings. Thanks tho.
