Push notifications are late or missing

Updated 25 September 2026
- iPhone Settings → Ting → Notifications: Allow is on and Banners are shown.
- Focus and Do Not Disturb are off, or Ting is allowed in them.
- Low Power Mode delays background delivery; charge or turn it off.
- In Ting, Settings → Notifications: the kind you expect is on and Mute all is off.
- The chat is not muted (look for the mute icon in the inbox).
- You are signed in on this phone; a phone that signed out stops receiving.
Inside the app you are told instantly over a live connection. A push has to travel from our servers through Apple to your phone, which normally takes under a second; a few seconds means the phone was asleep on a weak connection.
