Your time with them is measured by how much you love and care about the people around you. Even If it isn’t possible to be around them all the time, you can still stay connected through several Apps.
It affects commitment and relationships if you don’t get back to them in time through calls, texts, or whatever apps you prefer to stay connected to. This happens because on the iPhone, sometimes you don’t get notifications for texts and calls in the latest iOS version. Here are seven ways to fix this. Let’s show you how.
- Reboot or Restart your Apple iOS device.
- Ensure you have turned on wifi and Mobile Data
- Turn on iPhone Notifications if already off
- Try this if your iPhone is not getting notifications until you open the App.
- Turn off the Focus Mode Feature on the iPhone
- Scheduled SummaSummary 15)
- Reset iPhone to All Factory Settings
Reboot or Restart your Apple iOS device
This is the simplest way to fix this issue. Sometimes, iPhone software glitches automatically shut down the notifications.
You can power off the iPhone by going into Settings and sliding down to General. The last option in the menu is Shut Down. Tap the Shut Down button to see a power slider on the screen. Drag the power slider to the right side to turn off the iPhone.
To turn it back on, hold the side button. Your iPhone will restart.
Ensure you have turned on wifi and Mobile Data
Wifi:
Make sure that your wifi is connected to the home or workplace network.
To turn it on, go to settings, tap on the wifi, and then connect to the available network by adding its password.
Mobile Data:
Mobile data is preferred over Wi-Fi as it provides faster internet through 3G or 4G services. So, if you are experiencing a slower network with Wi-Fi connectivity, we suggest you get mobile data to plan to receive all notifications uninterrupted in real-time.
To turn on mobile data, go to settings, tap on mobile data, and turn it on.
Turn on iPhone Notifications if already off.
It is possible that the iPhone push notifications have been turned off somehow. To turn them back on, you just have to go to the settings, scroll down to the notifications, and toggle the notifications bar to open it.
Toggle on the Always in the Show Preview option if it is not allowed. So, the notifications will start appearing on your iPhone screen.
Try this if your iPhone is not getting notifications until you open the App.
If any specific app is not showing any notification, its notifications may be turned off. So you can individually go to that app settings through these simple steps:
- Go to Settings, open Notifications, then slide down to open that App; for example, if your Whatsapp is not showing notifications, open Whatsapp from notification settings.
- Toggle on Allow Notifications, and it will turn back on.
- In the last step, don’t forget to check the Lock screen, Notification Center, and Banner Alerts.
That’s how you will receive all the notifications from a specific app that was previously turned off.
Turn off the Focus Mode Feature on the iPhone.
Focus mode has been introduced in the iPhone so that you can work uninterruptedly. It blocks calls and notifications, but you will be able to receive calls and notifications when you turn it off.
- Fire up iPhone Settings, find Focus, and tap on it.
- Now, click on the Do Not Disturb option and turn it off.
- Now, slide down and remove the scheduled time to turn off the do not disturb mode.
Scheduled SummaSummary 15)
In the latest iOS 15, a newer option of scheduled summaSummarys off notifications for many apps. So make sure it is turned off so you can receive all messages.
- Go to Settings, scroll down to Notifications, and open it.
- You will see a Scheduled Summary option at the top. Tap it to turn it off if it isn’t already off.
- You can remove the summary.
Reset iPhone to All Factory Settings.
It is only suggested when all the above methods fail. In that case, you must ensure all your contacts and media are backed up in your iCloud.
- Tap on Settings and click on General.
- Now, tap on Transfer or Reset iPhone and click on Reset.
- Choose Reset All Settings and enter your Passcode. Your phone will return to factory settings, and you will start receiving notifications on your iPhone.
FAQs
There are some additional issues the iPhone users face related to notifications:
There are a couple of simple steps to ensure the notifications turn back on.
1. Go to your iPhone and open the Watch settings. Please tap on the Notifications and turn it back on.
2. If that does not work, you can try switching off your Apple Watch by touching the side button; it would be even better to turn the watch and iPhone simultaneously and keep it off for a while. Then, turn it on and send a message to check if that method worked.
3. Just like we tried on the iPhone by turning off DND mode, the same goes with the Apple Watch. Just go to the watch, slide its screen up to show notification options, and make sure the Moon symbol is not on—that is the do-not-disturb mode.
4. Check that the watch does not select the bell icon.
If the iPhone does not receive Notifications for texts, Emails, or Messenger, the notification setting for these apps may be turned off.
So, to turn it back on, go to the settings, then Notifications, and check if all three apps have their notifications on by checking Allow Notifications. Also, make sure all the Alerts for Lock Screen, Notification Center, and Banner are checked.
So, if the Notifications are not working on your iPhone from one person, this method can be helpful.
