other apps like instagram work, only for Messenger. I already uninstalled and resintalled the app.

Any ideas ?

This is secretly a blessing. Just go with it.

great advice thanks, I will then close my business cause I can’t receive messages from customers with messenger and go live in the wood

Unfortunately my messenger continues to go off all the dang time for junk I don’t want.

Same issue. Any solutions yet, or just wait for it to fix itself suddenly? lol

Me too I only get live videos notifications from Facebook. Any update for that problem?

A few days ago, seemingly out of nowhere, Messenger has stopped sending me notifications on my iPhone 12 Pro. The issue arose before I upgraded to IOS 16 from IOS 15 and upgrading has not solved the issue. The issue is isolated to the Messenger app. I am receiving other notifications as normal. I have tried seemingly every option short of factory resetting my phone, but I only want to do that as a last resort. I will summarize my attempts below and if anyone has any suggestions beyond my list, I would greatly appreciate it.

Enabled notifications both in Settings as well as in Messenger.
Turned phone off and on again.
Checked network settings and tried both on wifi and cellular.
Deleted and reinstalled Messenger.
Deleted and reinstalled the Facebook app and Messenger simultaneously.
Reset device settings.
Changed the language of my device and repeated all above steps in second language (my phone is normally in French, changed to English and now back to French).

My plan going forward is just to wait for the next Messenger update and hope that fixes the issue. If that doesn’t work, I may resort to doing a factory reset.

Thanks, everyone.

Update and solution for future reference: I managed to fix the issue. The problem actually stemmed from my Mac computer. I have the Messenger app installed and connected to the same account and noticed that the notifications in the app were set to off despite my Mac's system settings displaying them as enabled. I reinstalled the Messenger app on my computer AND on my phone, enabled notifications on both, and that solved the issue.

I've restarted the phone, uninstalled and reinstalled the app, double and triple checked all my settings. The notifications worked fine yesterday, now they don't work at all? Newest app, newest iOS, everything turned on, still not working, already missed a few important information because of that bug
