- Many Google Pixel users are still suffering from delayed notifications on their phones.
- The issue has persisted for several years and Google is aware of it.
- Some workarounds include disabling Adaptive Connectivity and/or Adaptive Battery.
One persistent issue I’ve noticed with my Google Pixel 7 Pro is that notifications are delayed if the phone has been locked for a while. This has been a common complaint on Pixel phones for a few years now, and the issue persists to this day.
Many Pixel owners have complained about delayed notifications from their apps in recent years, as notifications often only show up after unlocking the device. The issue doesn’t seem to be specific to a given Pixel model, either. Users of the Pixel 6 series, Pixel 7 range, Pixel 8 range, and Pixel Fold have all chimed in on Reddit to complain about the problem. It’s unclear if this problem affects the Pixel 9 series right now, although none of my Android Authority colleagues have reported delayed notifications on their Pixel 9 units.
