Yes. Have also set up the notifications in the app. Come to think of ir, it was working before I.updates to Android version 7.0

@EC1128

since it's a third party app, you have to contact the app developers regarding this bug.

Yes, something is wrong with push notifications on Android 7.0. Sometimes notifications are delayed, sometimes they are not coming until I turn on screen. With Android 6.0.1 everything was OK. Please fix this.

Make sure each app has been allowed to access data if the phone goes in to a low power state

I will try that and see if it works.

I tried clearing the cache and after restarting the phone, the push notifications is working again.

Cleaning the cache and restarting works only temporary for me. I didn't optimize for doze in battery settings apps that send me notification and that works now. When I optimize those apps problems again. I think Doze in Android Nougat is more aggressive then Doze in Android Marshmallow.

There's a conflict between the stock messaging app and push notifications. The only way I was able to get push notifications working was by disabling SMS notifications from the default messaging app. Now I'm getting notifications for mail and Facebook and the like but of course by sacrificing sms notifications. Please sony we need a fix for this

Push Notifications problem

isbesheer — Mon, 06 Mar 2017 16:42:44 GMT

Does anyone have a problem with receiving notifications for emails from Gmail and Yahoo apps? Also Facebook notifications? When I leave the phone for a while it just stops receiving those notifications although my old Z1C gets them with no problems. When I turn on the screen, notifications start to pour in. It's as if battery management disables these apps after the phone is idle for a while. I tried repairing with Xperia companion and made sure all my battery and notifications settings are made the right way but still the problem persists. Does anyone else suffer from this problem?

Yup, the same with Gmail for me. I usually leave my phone in the locker at the gym. When I get back to it, all other notifications are there (Facebook, etc) but only Gmail starts to update when I manually turn on the screen.

Have you got the Yahoo mail app? I've got the same problem with it too. What version of the phone do you have? Dual sim or single sim, US or European?

Re: Push Notifications problem

ikramkhasim — Tue, 14 Mar 2017 05:38:53 GMT

Don't have Yahoo. Using the F8332 Dual SIM, not sure what version. I've switched to Google Inbox though, and notifications are stable with this.

I have the same problems with Gmail, Outlook and other apps, such as Sofascore. The notifications arrive but a few hours late.

This is on a brand new XZ (F8331) running Android 7.1.1

For some reason on my new xperia xz the system had optimised all apps for battery consumption because I was having the same problem. Go to settings, battery then battery optimisation and reselect all apps that you don't want restricted in background and notifications should work.
