Not getting notifications for texts.

I’m not getting text notifications whatsoever. It will not make a sound, will not come up on the Lock Screen or anything. I have matched setting for everything to my son’s phone and it still will not work. HELP!

iPhone 12 Pro Max, 15

Troubleshooting Text Notifications:


A. Verify your Connection:

Be connected to the Internet, and try resending it.


B. Try Setting it Up Correctly:

Go Here: Use Messages on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


C. Enable Messages in ScreenTime:

  1. Go to: Settings
  2. Tap: Screen Time
  3. Tap: Allowed Apps
  4. Tap: Messages (So it is in "ALLOWED APPS")


D. Try Resending this:

Tap the red "i", and try resending it.


No Success?...

E. Contact your Carrier:

Ask your Carrier for support, as they are the one who provide you with the service of Messaging.
