My notifications are on, but I don’t always get a sound notification when I get a message from WhatsApp. Also I don’t get the little red number circle any more to tell me how many messages I have ..... thanks all . I have a Samsung phone by the way.
Yes they are on.... ... conversation tones, and .... use high priority notifications at top of screen, show previews of notifications at top of screen.
My Samsung also does that occasionally. Try, settings- notifications and click on the three dots on the top right corner then click on Reset notification settings. Works for me. The sound comes back.
I think one of the 2 is whatsapp saying it is checking for messages ( or words to that effect). I get that message a moment before the actual message I am receiving. Then 2 messages show but there is only one message.
Bought the wife a new phone for Xmas.. Transferred everything over with no problem.
This morning she wanted to know why she didn't get a noise to let her know when she received a WhatsApp message..
I told her to go into her phone settings (not her WhatsApp settings.)
Find.. sound and vibrations..
Click on Notifications and just select the sound you want and OK it.
It has been working non stop since then.. !!!
Alavahalf, all my Notification Sounds are on, still don’t get notification sounds every time, and I don’t get any number in the WhatsApp logo, even if I have three or four messages ....
Those getting "extra" notifications... you are just not finding them. Check for calls and everything else, as those disappear, once you have found them.
