Anyone else have this issue? All my notifications are turned on yet I never get popup notifications(ie. no notification pops up on the screen while on or locked)ā€¦ they are just coming in as silent notifications that appear in the taskbar. This is REALLY annoying since I use Whatsapp as my primary messager. I'll go into Whatsapp and have 20 new messages that never showed up... All notifications are on in both phone and Whatsapp settings. Nothing is set to silent.

Settings>Notifications>App notifications>Whatsapp>Notification categories>Message notifications>make sure "Show as pop-up" is toggled on and the other options are set appropriately.

Sadly, I have also been chasing this and am unable to find a solution... and yes, all the toggles I can find are switched on

My s23 just updated to ui6.1 and the default samsung messaging app also doesn't sow notifications anymore. I've toggled everything to show them and tried everything. They don't even show in my task bar, but only in the app itself. Is there a workaround? A way to reset messages settings? I am missing every message that comes to me.

Not resolved at all, I have a s24 ultra, and all my notifications settings are on/everything! And when I say it you can rely on me since I'm an IT technician, and whenever I get a WhatsApp phone call it just gives one beep and it stops to ring, and when I scroll down the notification panel, at the time of the incoming call, it indicates that the notifications are off, and the second it stops calling, the notification gets back turned on by itself!

This continues to be an issue on the s24 ultra. Has anyone from Samsung or WhatsApp acknowledged the issue officially?

If your WhatsApp notifications aren't working even though you've turned them on in Settings, I totally get how frustrating that can be. Itā€™s one of those little things that can make a big difference in your day, especially when youā€™re waiting for an important message. So, let's troubleshoot this together.

First off, make sure your iPhone isnā€™t in Do Not Disturb mode or Focus mode. These can block notifications without you even realizing it. If your phone has one of those modes enabled, your WhatsApp alerts might be silently piling up.

Another thing to check is whether your app is up-to-date. Sometimes, an outdated version of WhatsApp can cause glitches with notifications. Head over to the App Store and see if thereā€™s an update waiting for you. While youā€™re at it, restart your phone. I know, I knowā€”classic adviceā€”but it works more often than youā€™d think.

Sometimes, notifications get messed up because of background app refresh issues. Go to your iPhoneā€™s Settings, then General > Background App Refresh, and check if itā€™s enabled for WhatsApp. If itā€™s off, that might be why youā€™re not seeing notifications.

If you have problem persist after trying these solution, you can follow for more details instruction below.
