iPhone 13 Pro iOS 18.1.1 stopped receiving notifications from all of my apps

All of a sudden, I stopped receiving notifications from all of my apps. Whatsapp, Viber, Duolingo, Instagram, you name it, I’m not receiving anything on my lock screen. I need to go inside of the app to check if there is something new. This is really frustrating and basically making my phone unusable. The software I’m running is 18.1.1 and it’s on iphone 13 pro. I’ve checked each individual app in control center and all of them have notification turned on, I didn’t change anything from how it originally was. Can someone help - is this an ios issue?

Hi and thanks for the reply.


I’ve checked everything you wrote and all of the settings seem to be in order. All relevant apps have “immediate delivery” turned on, I don’t have focus mode active, no scheduled summary active and everything seems to be fine. I really think this is a software bug…

SravanKrA It was very thoughtful of you to take so much time to share screenshots of how to turn on notifications. It is a good reference. However I believe the problem most posters are referring to, is that we made no changes to our notification settings and all of our notification settings are correctly set to we should be receiving notifications. From what I have read here in the apple community and on other forums, the notification issue is quite random. Some apps continue to give notifications and other apps stop giving notifications even though settings are properly set. People have tried uninstalling and reinstalling apps and even done hard resets of their phones and the issue is unresolved. I have read of a few instances when uninstalling and reinstalling apps has resolved the issue but it doesn't help for most who try it. I did go to settings and verified that the notifications settings are correct on each of my apps that stopped giving notifications. Since the other troubleshooting steps are very time consuming and seem to have inconsistent results I am going to put off trying them. My phone has iOS 18.1.1

Notifications or Notifications Alerts?


  1. Help for Notification Alerts --> No Notification Alerts - Apple Community
  2. To turn ON notifications selectively for apps, go to Settings > Notifications > Scroll Down to the App and turn ON notifications... Change notification settings on iPhone - Apple Support (IN)
  3. Some apps have their own notification settings over and above the iOS notification settings: An example of Instagram Notification settings is given below
