429 Too Many Requests

Hello everyone,

My iPhone 15 Pro, updated to the latest available version of iOS 27 (27.0.1), suddenly stopped sending me notifications from almost all the apps I have installed.

The main ones, and the ones causing me the most problems, are WhatsApp, Microsoft Teams, and Outlook, but also Instagram, My Avs Alarm, and many others.

I have already tried everything: checking the notification settings, which are all correct (and I haven’t changed them overnight anyway), making sure that Focus modes weren’t enabled, checking Priority Notifications, reinstalling the apps, restarting the iPhone, but nothing works!

I find this really unbelievable. Has anyone else ever experienced something like this?

Thank you very much for your help!

Quick update: I’m not sure if this is directly related to the issue, but in my case, I'd run out of iCloud storage. I freed up space by physically deleting photos and videos from iCloud (after saving them to an external hd). After that, I backed up my iPhone and WhatsApp, and completely reinstalled the apps that were having notification issues. A few days later, everything seems to be working correctly again. I can't explain how the storage issue might have affected notifications, though it might just be a coincidence. I didn't perform any updates compared to before; the only change was freeing up that space. It remains a bit of a mystery...

If your watch is paired to this phone you will not get notifications on the locked phone. Never have done

Did you just start wearing an Apple Watch?

I realized today that I don't get nearly any notifications on my 15 Pro anymore on iOS 27.0.1. Reinstalling gmail did fix gmail notifications but I don't want to reinstall all the apps - it will take a day. Nothing else worked.

i have also had this issue since updating to iOS 27.0.1 , and the issue persists after updating to the latest iOS 27.2. i’m also on iPhone 18 Pro Max! i really thought apple would have fixed it by now. i’m an influencer online so i regularly would get notifications persisting all day long. after updating, they’re completely broken, as in i only get notifs every 20 minutes or so , then nothing at all, sometimes for hours. i have both an iPhone & iPad & the identical issue occurs. have tried everything and nothing has fixed it. highly disappointed in apple as i have never experienced an inconvenience this bad from them and it needs to be fixed ASAP especially after this new update not addressing the issue, making it so i’ve been dealing with this for an entire month now.

Glad to know I’m not the only one! Apple absolutely MUST fix these critical bugs; I’m seriously thinking about leaving the Apple ecosystem because of this! Nothing like this ever happened to me when I used Android!

As soon as I have time I’ll try visiting an Apple Genius, though I was hoping to resolve a problem like this on my own...

I've been fighting this on my 15 Pro Max for the past day once I realized the notifications weren't going through. I assumed it was broken by pairing a new Apple Watch but it looks like there are at least a few people with the same problem. I've gone through resetting everything I could think to try short of erasing the phone and starting clean. Hopefully Apple can send some sort of fix. I really don't want to have to start from the beginning...

Same here. Nothing I tried worked really.

I have a lot of storage in iCloud, I signed out and back in to my apple id. I deleted and reinstalled apps. Restarted my phone many many times.

Nothing seems to fix this.

I dont’t get mails, work slack messages, whatsapp, instagram, tiktok… nothing

sometimes it seems to work, but then it goes back to not working

sometimes messages arrive many minutes late.

all of this happened after I updated to ios 27.0.1, I also got a weird alarm of “a new device added to icloud” when no device was actually added…


If anyone has a permanent fix, please let me know, I am desperate

Updated to 27.0.1 from iOS 26 on my iPhone 15 Pro, now none of my notifications are working.


Banking, authentication, WhatsApp. All of them are broken.


Background app refresh is on, but still the problem persists.


iOS 27 is a disaster so far.

Same issue with my iPhone 15 Pro Max. I'm not receiving any notifications from apps like WhatsApp, LINE, etc. Only regular carrier calls and SMS messages are coming through. It's really frustrating. Hope Apple acknowledges the issue and releases a fix soon.


I have already had these bugs since developer beta, but I thought it only applied to beta versions. Sadly, and having been excited I was when I updated to 27.0.1, it's been sending almost none of my notifications when I'm using the phone, only when I'm not using it (screen-off), there are notifications.

I’ve tried 99% of the solutions available out there for iPhone 15 pro max and my wife’s iPhone 15. The only notifications that are working are in iMessage , no other app at all. The 1% is that I haven’t factory reset the phones, if someone can confirm that factory reset will fix the issue, I will even go there

this is driving me insane right now I even did a factory reset for my settings and it still didn’t work so I have to deal with all my settings back to normal and no notifications. This needs to be fixed asap

This has just started happening for me on my iphone 15 pro. I have tried all resolutions, other than factory reset and nothing has worked. Has anyone figured this out? Instagram, Snapchat, Whatsapp, TikTok, basically every app is not sending notifications. It is quite frustrating. Not even badges showing on the apps - I have to physically go into each one and refresh it.

I spoke to someone on the phone a few days ago and they told me the next step was to update my mac to OS 27 (I currently am on 26.6.2). Based on the replies to this thread and others, I am hesitant to update my mac and potentially cause more issues with no notification fix.

The same problem happened to me like two days ago. I have iPhone 15 pro. I didn’t update iOS or anything, just woke up and didn’t see any notifications. Then started to open apps manually and there were all the messages. WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, TikTok nothing sends notifications. Updated iOS to 26.7.2, nothing changed. Tried everything but still no result.

Has anyone figured it out?

After the IOS update, it seems that the problem continues.

For some apps (for example WhatsApp), offloading the app somehow solved it, but for others it didn't.

It's unclear which apps are affected, so I don't know what to try to solve it.

I tried contacting Apple Support, but it was mainly to check settings and restart some settings. It still didn't help.

I thought it was just me.

Very concerning, especially regarding financial activity!

OK Apple…time for a fix, ASAP!

Nope! I haven't started using an Apple Watch. I’ve simply continued using the one I’ve had since 2024. No new Apple Watch and no new paring...

Same for me on iPhone 15 Pro. WhatsApp, Spark, Forza and a bunch of other apps just don’t send me notifications anymore. Driving me crazy.

Same here, no notifications from Instagram, outlook, gmail, blink camera. This is ridiculous and annoying. I have done it alllll!

Thanks for the tip. To clarify, I don't get notifications on either device.

Same here with iPhone 15 Pro Max, updated a day ago, and missed 2 important bank notification. This shouldn't be happen at this stage of an OS. One of the most basic function of the phone is failing.

Same issue here too

IOS 27.2 is released. I wonder if the notification issues on iPhone 15 Pro are solved?

the issue persists for me sadly

Having this same issue. Did anyone ever figure it out?

Same issue for me, notification failed to work even I'm on IOS 27.2 for IPhone 15Pro. Need Apple to fix the bug asap...
