No notification sounds after new iOS 18 update on my iPhone

My iPhone and iPad have the same problem NO alert sound when I get email, I phoned AppleCare he took over my iPhone and checked all the settings but couldn't find anything amiss. So have installed my emails on my Samsung so l now get notifications.

I tried this but did not fix mine was kind of hopeful but then again no bt means so connections to the truck,watch and headphones. My sounds are so intermittent that at one point it seemed like the only email that gave sounds was spam lol but then even that stopped. I originally spent about total hrs with middle support help to where they took control of the phone gathered all kinds of data and engineers said yeah are aware of the issue. That was the last i heard from support.

I do believe this was my issue as I did have a problem where the phone was in a Do Not Disturb. However it may have been because it had somehow been set to Smart Activation.

I complaint already almost 2 months

engineers they didn’t do anything for resolve the issue

they don’t care

FYI - Mine was fixed by going to Settings->Notifications->Messages and turning "Allow Notifications" off and then back on again.

I completed nobody do nothing almost 4 months they don’t care

Apple please fix this bug

thanks

I have bluetooth still turned off and notifications sound still work randomly

Outlook is the only one I would use, as I was not impressed with Google’s. Unfortunately I have a work profile using Outlook and it doesn’t allow me to keep my private hotmail as an additional account. So the better solution is simply for Apple to be aware and to fix it. Unless someone else has a free email client as good as Outlook.

Thanks for confirming it is an iOS 18 issue!

Just spent some phone time with AppleCare support, went through all the settings on the 15 Pro and found no issues. His final suggestion was to reset network settings, did that and it appears to work now for Messages and the Ring doorbell alerts.

However, I've had similar results from just a power off-power on cycle but after a while, the alerts stopped. So I guess time will tell...

The problem appeared to be somehow Bluetooth related since I could turn Bluetooth off, restart the phone and get alerts to work until I turned Bluetooth back on.

I was afraid this wouldn't be a one size fits all fix. At least it's a band aid for me until they (hopefully) figure out the root cause. I just can't take advantage of my smartwatch or home automation apps for now.

Finally seems sounds are back for me with this most current ios update iOS 18.4 (22E240). Its been a couple days it also seems like its back to pushing emails as they come in instead of every 15mins. I hope this update helps everyone else too.

The notifications for messages stopped when I upgraded to 18.3. The notifications for mail stopped when I upgraded to 18.4.2. Push mail stopped working with iOS 18, but just started working again with 18.4.2.

I've tried all the suggestions here that seemed to work for others and none of them work for me.

I absolutely refuse to delete and reinstall apps. That just tells me they don't know how their own software works.

I guess the only option is to "hope" Apple wakes up and fixes this. It's gotten to the point that I rue running any update because I know it will break something that was working just fine.

Notifications has somehow started working again.
