Turning Off App Notifications not working.. - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6

Turning off a few app notifications is not working like mail and Facebook, and I'm not sure why. I don't even see an option to turn off push notifications for apps which is definitely a big battery drainer in any case.

[Q] why am i not getting notifications in fb app

is it normal that we dont get facebook notifications in wp8 devices or just me...? please dont say enable toasts and tile count cuz its already on... any other way to get notifications???
If you mean from the FB app, some of the notification types don't seem to work even if they are enabled, and not all of them are enabled by default either.

yea same here... androids were faster with notifications, you will get gmail/fb notification before coming to webpage on a computer... wp8 suxx in this area...
I just use the regular explorer and bookmark facebook, I use desktop mode and it's just like on my laptop notifications pop up and it makes the little bubbly sound, everything works fine that way, I simply set up txt notif's & have them set to off if I'm logged in so when I close it I'll get a notification if I recieve a message.
Have you tried the facebook beta app? I don't get much notifications, so I can't tell how responsive it is.
same here, I guess the push message not working well.

how does stamina mode work?

Looking to get some insight into stamina mode. If i enable it will i still recieve all my notifications? i see it says it shuts off data when screen is off. So do i need to add like hangouts to the ignore list? will i still get regular SMS and MMS messages? Someone explain it to me like im 5 please
Stamina mode restricts data connection when the screen off. For sms, it doesnt need an internet connection so it will pass through.
Turn on stamina mode and add exception to some apps you need notification through when you're not using your phone. In my case, it's only whatsapp that has been excluded.

if I add all my apps that give push notifications (e-mail, social media, transit, etc), does it essentially defeat the purpose of using stamina?

Do you really need all the instant notification of social apps like fb and instagram? It's not like you only use your phone every 3 hours.

Stamina and Gmail
Is anyone successfully using Stamina mode with extended standby and having Gmail whitelisted?
I get no notification from Gmail and the problem seems to be that while my phone receives the push notification from Google that new mail is available it just queues the update for my Gmail account. I assume this from looking at the sync settings for my Google account where it shows a reload or refresh icon beside the Gmail entry.
But after unlocking the phone the synchronization does not happen. I even waited for several hours but nothing happens. I wonder for what the phone is waiting until is starts the sync. Manually syncing in that situation immediately shows the new mail.
Currently I ended up turning off the extended standby and only using the lowered hardware performance from Stamina mode. Its a pity because WhatsApp and Hangouts notifications don't have this problem.
So i used this and only whitelisted hangouts, turned on the stamina clock and i feel like i get better battery with it turned off, i did not see any increase in using it, am i doing something wrong?

battery saver app but lets apps notifications

Hi all,
I was using greenpower and does a perfect job however I need to get notifications from email app and airbnb app.
Is there any way to get the phone into deepsleep but get emails and airbnb notifications in the meantime?

Not getting any notifications in time

I'm having an issue where I don't get any notifications until I open the app. For example with gmail, I have to refresh Gmail inside the app in order to get my emails.
Though, I have Sync turned on and power saving mode is off.
Anyone else?
Yes, I've only had this with Pie, it's annoying

Annoying to say at least. How can they release a brand new phone with a firmware that can't even deliver notifications, it's pretty basic stuff and some notifications can be quite important.
Noticed this as well on some apps.. very frustrating. Needs to be fixed ASAP

Delayed Notification with Screen Off

I have an Honor Play (COR-L29), and pretty much since day one I've had an issue with delayed push notifications for almost every app from which I receive push notifications. For example, someone will send an email to my Gmail account, but while my screen is off, I will not be notified. The moment I wake the screen, the notification will come through. It's running the latest firmware. In Apps>Special Access>Battery Optimisation I have set ALL apps to NOT ALLOWED, and in Battery>App Launch I have set ALL aps to MANUAL, but this has made no difference. I have also used the Wipe Cache Partition feature several times, and again this makes no difference. I love the phone, but simply can't cope with the notification issue. Does anyone have a solution?

Which one battery settings you used, it's normal mode or power saving mode? If you used power saving mode it will be turn off all your background notification, such as gmail.
And go to settings -> battery -> more battery settings -> check stay connected when device sleeps.
Hope it will help
