Hi Alan,
Thanks for posting this I feel slightly less crazy now. Even though many
proclaimed that Apple is great with more than one device on an Apple ID and
that push should work fine on all of them that like yours was not my
experience at all. I'm finding it to be very hit or miss and very specific
to apps. for instance some news apps seem to perform fine while some of my
weather apps did not and social media apps were the worst offenders. Like
you they seem to be one device oriented (laughs).
So while I now have a secondary device for beta testing which leads me to a
question I'll post under separate cover I like you have found that having
all favorite apps pushing to more than one device at a time definitely does
seem to be quite hit or miss.

Subject: Re: Notifications Missing on New iPhone 7 was RE: A Couple of
Problems
Hi Sieghard,
After googling around, it seems to me that getting all app notifications
across multiple devices might not be attainable. At least some of the
threads I came across seemed to indicate that.
Since I'm pretty much a one I device kind of guy, I just went into my old
iPhone 6 and turned off all app notifications. Now they are all coming to my
new iPhone.
I am experiencing the same issue that Esther originally posted about that
notifications received while my iPhone 7 is locked aren't being read by
VoiceOver. Perhaps I'll contact Apple Accessibility about that.
Thanks to all who replied on this thread.

Hi Alan,
Why don't you try to call Apple Accessibility and see if they can help or,
if you have an Apple Store nearby, stop in and talk to them.

Well, I have two iphones currently with the same name and Apple I'd. I
went in on my new iPhone 7 as you suggested and turned notifications off
and back on for every app on my phone. However, app notifications are only
coming in on my old iPhone 6 and not at all on my new iPhone 7. Maybe you
can't have two devices with the sane name on the sane Apple I'd and get
notifications on both of them. If you can, I'd love to know how to do it.
After I get all my downloaded bard book info loaded on my new phone, I'll
reset the old phone to clear it and I expect this will no longer be an
issue.

Hi, Alan,
I had to go into the apps to reset the notifications again and now I'm
getting all of them back. However, I don't get them on the locked
screen. Perhaps you have to go into some of the apps and set them up in
order to receive notifications again. I hope this will be successful for
you. Good luck.

Esther and All,
I'm getting the same issue you experienced with your iPhone 7 Plus, that
is, I'm getting all my notifications on my old iPhone 6 but nothing on
my new iPhone 7 which was restored from an iTunes encrypted backup. I
went under Settings, Notifications, and drilled down into each app on
the new phone and turned notifications off and back on again but I'm
still not getting anything. I didn't have your problem with my music as
it all came over when I synced with iTunes.
Can anyone offer any suggestions how I can get the notifications on my
new iPhone 7? Do I need to turn them off on my iPhone 6? I will be
resetting and clearing the iPhone 6 in order to sell it but that won't
be for a few days until I get all my BARD Mobile books identified and my
reading position noted.
Thanks in advance.

Hi, Sieghard!
Thanks for your response. I actually am not getting notifications at
all, and yes, the speak notifications in VoiceOver is turned on. All my
apps are turned on and I've always had speak on locked screen on, even
on my other phones. It's quite a dilemma. I just went in and checked
all the settings again and they are as I've had them. I usually get
notifications from CNN, Headlines, a couple of my local television
channels, and my FitBit device, among others.
Thanks again and take care!

Hi Esther,
The fact you still have your old iPhone does not matter with respect to
notifications on your new phone. If set up correctly Notifications
should speak. Maybe you can explain exactly which notifications you
want and how you want them. Do you want them to show up on the
lockscreen and/or in notification centre? Do you want Voiceover to
automatically speak them? You may want to check in Voiceover settings
for the "Automatically speak notifications" toggle and turn it on if it
is off.
Regards,
Sieghard

Hi, Alan!
Thanks for responding. Concerning the native mail app, the
three-finger placement on the unread message is great! However, as far
as my notifications are concerned, I do have all the apps on in the
Notifications app and I'm still not getting them. Maybe it's because I
still have my iPhone 6+ and everything is still on it. I'm not going
to wipe it clean yet until I get my Music straightened out.
Thanks so much for your suggestions.

Esther,
Apple changed the way the native mail app works in iOS 10. Even with
preview turned on in your settings, you'll need to touch the screen
with 3 fingers to initiate a Voiceover preview of the email with
focus. If you're using message threading and the thread with focus
contains more than one message, you can single finger swipe until you
hear expand thread and double tap and the messages in the thread will
appear below it. Swiping right to each message in an expanded thread
will result in Voiceover speaking your preview number of lines without
the three finger touch previously mentioned.
I would think you should check Settings, Notifications to see what you
have set for each app.
I'm not sure about your music but I would start by going into iTunes
with your 7 plus connected to your computer and making sure you have
the music you want transferred to your device appropriately synced
within iTunes.

Subject: A Couple of Problems
Hi, All,
Since I bought my 7+, I've been having some unusual problems. First
of all, under Settings, and Mail, which is now separate from Contacts
and Calendar, I have my Preview set to two lines. When I look at the
Unread messages, the the two-line preview is not read. This I can't
understand.
Another problem is that I'm not getting notifications. I still have
my old 6+ and haven't wiped it clean yet because I want to transfer
all my music purchases. AT&T did transfer everything over from the
Cloud, except for a lot of my music. I realize that I have to sync
with my Apple computer, but it only brings over songs that I've
purchased from iTunes. It doesn't transfer any songs that I bought
from other sources or brought over from CDs. I turned off all the
apps under Notifications on my 6+, and also turned off syncing to
other devices when I purchase apps or anything else under iTunes and
App Store.
Any help I can get to solve both of these dilemmas would certainly be
appreciated.
