Notifications Don't Always Work!!!

Hi,
I have had this issue a fair bit with my samsung devices, I own a Galaxy S II and a Note 10.1 and for some reason both devices notifications don't work all the time. I mainly refer to facebook and my Emails (outlook app). Currently my notifications will get pushed through but majority of the time they don't.

If this is unresolvable I may have to swop my tablet out for a IOS device where I can rely on getting my notifications right away. As much as this is not a prefered option.

Thanks

Hello,

Can't say I've had those problems but I also use the Gmail app.

At a total guess, try checking the settings in those apps. It's possible they are set so they only give a maximum number of notifications within a specified time period (e.g. no more than 1 a minute or something) to stop you getting 'spammed' by notifications. Or another thing it could be if it's just email apps that they're set to only retrieve emails every 15 minutes or something so there's always that delay before you device even knows about the email.

I have checked every settings on both the device and the apps. the default Email app use to do every 5 minute. Outlook app is set to push (doesnt push all the time)'Facebook should be pushing instantly because at times i can have notifications going off left right and center and then a few ours later when the conversation has stopped it wont get any notifications and i hear my laptop notifying me. Also at times my phone will receive it and the tablet one or vise versa. very annoying
