Hi, i've never had push notification issues on my iPhone. everything has been smooth with them as far as i can remember back in the day. but at some point in beta 3, i stopped getting whatsapp notifications. it just randomly happened one day. i've done all the steps i knew and no luck to fix it. all my other apps dont seem to have any problems!

beta 4 didnt' fix this. anybody else experiencing issues with push from third party apps? considering the repeat notification issue of beta 1 and 2, maybe this does have something to do with ios. maybe not.

Have you tried reinstalling the app and reset all settings in Settings > General > Reset.

I'm using Whatsapp as I type and it's working fine for me.

thanks. the reset seems to have fixed it. hate using reset since i lose all my networks but in this case guess its worth it.

I know what you mean but 'Reset All Settings' is like the best troubleshooting step. Tends to fix most things.

unfortuantely it seems my issue is not fixed! at the time i spoke too soon, since i just did the reset and sent myself a message from other phone as soon as i minimized whatsapp. it must have still been active or whatever.

i tried doing another reset. tried deleting the app and installing again. tried the reset notification settings within the app. turned off and on notifications from settings. tried everything else i can think of i just wont get my whatsapp notifications back!! very annoying!
 
I'm experiencing the exact same issue

Tried everything but still no push.
 
Hard reset has worked for me, but then again I had to redo that in 4 or 5 days.
 
I m also having the issue....but when my phone is locked....it seems to b working....but when i am in another app then whatsapp dnt gave a push notification ...same with all third party apps.....its a bug may be....

Same issue all of the sudden.

I see the number on the app icon but it does not notify me while im using the phone
 
Any change with beta 5? As far as I can tell based on just a bit of beta 5 usage so far, at least for me, it seems like notifications might be back to normal (at least I now see some that I wasn't seeing before).
 
Beta 5 on iPhone 4S and still no Whatsapp push. :mad:
Not sure about Whatsapp, which might be more of a isolated/app-specific issue, but it looks like all the usual notifications are working fine in beta 5 (again, so far, and for me).
 
It's really simple, all you have to do is turn off your phone for 30 seconds then turn it back on!
