Howdy!

Received my new S25 Ultra yesterday, set it up via SmartSwitch. Everything transferred correctly but none of my notifications are working. 
 
Zero.
 
I have gone though forum postings that other people have posted looking for solutions and most of those has been DND or a routine turned on blocking notifications. 
 
Things I've checked:
 
  • Do Not Disturb is TURNED OFF.
  • No Modes or Routines are running (there aren't any setup).
  • Sound is on.
  • Vibrate is on.
  • No icons or app badges show up on the top.
  • The apps that I am testing with I have confirmed that notifications are turned on.
  • All the options are selected for the notification options (Lock Screen, App icon badge, Notification pop-up).
  • This happens if the phone is sleeping or awake.
  • My old phone is still using Wi-Fi and notifications work fine on that one (other than messages and phone cause that's tied to the SIM). Turning off the old phone and waiting a few minutes and trying on the new phone, same thing happens.
  • If I open the offending app, I can see the unread messages.
Other than wiping the phone, skipping the SmartSwitch and starting from scratch, I am not sure how to move forward.
 
Thanks.

I have a few different gmails in my phone for work and personal etc, but I only get notifications from one email address and not the others. Anyone else have this issue? Using Gmail widget.

Gmail has had issues with notifications for years and nobody has ever figured it out. I gave up a long time ago and use Outlook for my Gmail accounts. Have never had an issue receiving notifications with it.

Hi, I am receiving many notifications except from 2 apps: irobot and Alexa. I am signed into both, and I have notifications turned on in app and in settings for these 2 apps. I used SmartSwitch successfully from my S24+. These apps notified me as expected. What gives?

You would probably need to wait for an update to the app, since all others are working properly.

I noticed it took about 36 hrs before my Alexa notifications started.

I recently changed my phone from S23 Ultra to S25 Ultra. Now I amreceiving gmail notifications on S23 Ultra but not on S25 Ultra. In app settings battery usage is set to unrestricted, notification setting in gmail app is active.
Anyone knows what might be the issue?
