Why doesn't Facebook show push notifications?

Admin has answered your question about what push notifications on Facebook are in the first part. In this section, we will find out the reasons why Facebook does not update new notifications or does not have push notifications. Because when you know the cause, you will have a more appropriate and effective solution.

For the situation of Facebook not having push notifications, the 'culprit' could be due to:

1. Users have turned off notifications, especially Facebook app push notifications. This is the leading cause of no Facebook notifications on the phone.
2. You have turned off notifications for that article, so there are no notifications about the article you are following on Facebook.
3. We cannot rule out the possibility that Facebook does not have new notifications because the network connection on the phone is unstable, weak wifi, no internet connection. Internet network errors are also a big problem affecting Facebook.
4. It doesn't stop there, maybe you've seen all the notifications and there are no new notifications for now, so you mistakenly think that Facebook doesn't show you push notifications/new notifications.
5. But it cannot be ruled out that Facebook is having problems so the error occurs and this cause is also quite common for many device problems.
6. Finally, if your Facebook hasn't been updated in a while, it's running an old, outdated version. This is also the 'culprit' causing problems, including not showing notifications on the phone.
