Why isn't my iphone 11 alerting me via sound when I get a text from one of my contacts? Yes, everything is turned on and the volume is up.

iPhone 11, iOS 16

Check if Hide Alerts have been activated for that one contact.


Look for a small "crossed out bell". out of the conversations. You deactivate Hide Alerts by swiping from left to right on the conversation in the overview and tapping the purple bell.
