Our smartphones sometimes they infuriate us. They seem to decide for themselves what to show us and what not to. In fact, it often happens that you no longer receive some notifications. WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook suddenly stop notifying us when there is a new message.
How to do in these cases? Fortunately, we must not despair and the answer is very simple. Here’s what to do when notifications on your smartphone no longer arrive.
The ways in which notifications are received
First of all you need to be sure that the phone can receive notifications. There are, in fact, ways that tell our smartphone to remain silent.
The first is the “Do Not Disturb” mode. This is activated when messages and calls cannot be answered. It’s also useful when you don’t want to be distracted by your phone. “Do not disturb” is used, in fact, during meetings and events that require silence. It is possible, however, to leave this mode active without realizing it.
Similar speech should be made for the battery saving mode. This can be activated manually. But it can also be set to activate automatically. Many smartphones in this mode no longer carry out app updates. And so they no longer send notifications.
In addition, sometimes the phone remains in battery saving even when it is charged. It is therefore necessary to deactivate this function when it is not needed.
All settings to receive notifications
Here’s what to do when the notifications on the smartphone no longer arrive and it’s the fault of the settings. First of all we need to update all the apps that do not send us notifications.
The cause of the problem, in fact, could be hidden in a bug fixed in the new version. Then you need to access the “Notifications” section of your smartphone. Here you can allow apps to send different types of notifications. Push notifications, notifications in the top bar and on the lock screen are available in detail. Therefore, we need to check that all the apps we need have the necessary permissions.
Who owns an iOS phone, if that step didn’t help, they also need to check background apps. Under “General Settings” you can update apps in the background. This allows apps to send notifications even when they are not in use. Those who use Android smartphones must check that the cache is not too full. This can build up and slow down the phone. And, accordingly, limit the sending of notifications.
