iPhone notifications are not working after the iOS 18.2 update

Ever since I updated my iOS last month and even with this new update to 18.2 my iPhone 13 Pro is not sending me notifications for anything but texts. The two apps that it is most frustrating is my Ring app and Snapchat.

When I check settings, immediate notifications are enabled for these apps. And focus is off (in fact I’ve never used focus). I also made sure that notifications are on in the apps as well. I’m beyond frustrated does anyone have suggestions on how to fix this? Thank you.

The problem occurred after the iOS update which is why I mentioned it.

Do you have any helpful suggestions to get my notifications back… especially for the Ring since I no longer get notifications when someone is at the door. Thank you.

It's not always the iOS update's fault!  Many things can cause phone problems.  If you tell people you think it's an iOS update, it might make it harder to fix or find a solution for the real issue.


Remember, the right question often leads to the solution!



iOS updates aim to enhance user experience, boost security, and fix bugs rather than disrupt core features. The majority of the issues after updates might stem from underlying, unmentioned factors. Updates won't typically alter personal data but may refine settings or features. Backup before major updates for safety. Review Apple's update details and backup advice for a smooth process.


Kindly consider checking your settings and addressing any device issues before attributing the issue to external factors. This could be a pure coincidence that the iOS update affected the iPhone functions.


Before initiating a standard iOS update, it's advisable to create a backup. Have you completed this step? If yes, proceed with the restoration from the backup.
