No notification sounds after new iOS 26 update on my Iphone

This happens randomly on my Iphone 15. Sometimes the sound for a text will work and other times it won’t. I have to to turn my mute switch off and back on again for the sound notifications to work again. Then later, the sound will stop working again. Hopefully Apple is aware of the bug and will create a fix.




iPhone 15, iOS 26

My iPhone 15 on iOS 26.1 caused text tones to stop periodically. I tried everything. Apple Support said “go to Settings/Apps/Messages and turn OFF ALLOW NOTIFICATIONS then restart iPhone then turn ON ALLOW NOTIFICATIONS. I did and all is well now. I hope text tones stay normal.
