Help No Google notifications when phone is off

Not getting any Google notifications, e.g. Calendar or Security alerts if phone is asleep. Shortly after turning on notifications will come in. I do not have data saver on, what else is preventing Google from running in the background? Galaxy J7 Prime.

That sounds like it's getting a connection, then showing alerts it couldn't when there wasn't one. I know you don't have Data Saver on, but check your settings for anything that blocks a communication-type action when the phone is sleeping.

Also, see if changing your 'override do not disturb' settings helps. For Calendar, it's kind of convoluted getting there, but start in System Settings, and then Notifications. If you can't find its DND setting, post back.

Can't seem to find any setting that would affect Google when phone is off. Not able to find any override do not disturb setting for Google app either, although I don't have do not disturb on.
