VK group notifications do not arrive. What's the matter if I stopped receiving notifications on my iPhone on VKontakte?

Sometimes it happens that notifications do not arrive in VK. Why this is so can be difficult to answer right away, since there may be several reasons for this.

By the way, Lately a virus has appeared that causes completely the opposite discomfort. It sends you notifications that your friend asks you to join a certain community or go to a website.

You can also see such notifications without having a virus. For example, go to a garbage site (the so-called sites that do not care about their visitors and post dozens of intrusive and often extortionate advertisements) and most likely in the lower left corner there will be a notification similar in appearance to that in contact.

Most often, in such a message, a pretty girl approaches you and invites you to take a walk with her. Naturally, this is a hoax and by clicking on this window you will be redirected to a site with prostitutes.

But to prevent this from happening again and not to pay attention to advertising at all, you’d better install the adblock that I wrote about in the article about.

Let's look together at ways to configure notifications. Since there are many types of notifications for a contact, as well as devices from which they access the social network, we will analyze each item separately.

I'm not receiving notifications from the contact on my iPhone:

If push notifications on iOS devices do not show notifications, then the matter is most likely that you have disabled this function in the settings.

Follow the instructions in the pictures and set up notifications as you see fit.

This is the first option if notifications are disabled in the settings of the phone itself.

And this is the second option:

You probably realized that in in this case All notifications are set in the settings of the VKontakte application. For the iPad everything is the same, but these screenshots were taken on an iPhone.

Notifications do not arrive on Android:

Although the operating systems are different, setting up notifications is the same. In the settings of your Android phone or tablet, find information about notifications and check the box next to “show on locked screen” and push notifications.

You can also enable an option in the settings for any phone and tablet that supports SIM cards, thanks to which you will receive SMS messages when someone writes to you. True, they will arrive after 5 minutes and only if you do not read the message on the site.

If you do not receive this type of notifications on the site in VK, then you can configure what notifications you would like to see in the “settings” tab. this should only be done with full version contact.

P.S. If you encounter a problem that application notifications are not displayed, then most likely you need to enable this function, either in your page settings or in the application settings, and it is better to uncheck the “broadcast application to status” checkbox at the same time.

You can also make a flash notification. Also very useful feature, only people sometimes think that they are being photographed when the phone is pointed at them and they write or call you.

Some time ago, VK users began receiving messages this kind of“Your VKontakte account was logged in via...” by email or mobile app. What could it mean this message?

This new feature and it was created in order to protect the user. For example, if a user receives a message that his account has been logged in, but he last logged into VKontakte several hours ago, someone has probably gained access to his data.

Errors may look different depending on what device you are logging into your account from. For example:

Your VKontakte account was logged in via Chrome, Russia

Your VKontakte account was logged in via Yandex Browser, Russia

Your VKontakte account was logged in via the VK app for Android, Russia

The following message will be sent to the email to which the page is linked:

You received this letter because your VKontakte account was logged in on April 21, 2016 at 1:26 p.m. via Firefox, Russia.

If this happened without your knowledge, immediately go to your page to protect your account.

We wish you good luck, VKontakte Administration

So if you suddenly receive a message of this kind and are sure that neither you nor your loved ones who may know the password to access your page have visited your account, immediately go and change the password.

In addition, we strongly recommend using the page login confirmation function: to do this, you need to enter confirmation in the form of a one-time code that will be sent to your phone or in another chosen way. In this case, account protection becomes maximum. We have already told you how to do this before.

Your VKontakte account was logged in via...

If you receive such a message, you need to be very careful. Especially if you did not log into your VKontakte page from other devices. Let's figure it out.

What does it mean you are logged into your account?

This notification may come if (see how to disable VKontakte notifications) if you are logged into your account with mobile device, or another computer.

If you did not log in, then with a high degree of probability, attackers gained access to your account (see how to hack a VKontakte page). Here you need to proceed as follows.

Go to your page and log out from all devices (see how to log out from all VKontakte devices). This is necessary in order to break all current connections. Including sessions opened by an attacker.

After this, urgently change the password for the page (see how to change the VKontakte password), and enable the double authorization function (see. double authorization in contact with). This way you will significantly increase the security of the page and will not give an attacker the opportunity to log in, even if he has a username and password.

notification about entering VK - VKontakte

friends, tell me how to bypass the entry notification? that is, I logged in from a different IP and so that the owner of the account did not receive a notification that I had logged in

If only you log in from the same IP as the owner.

Even when I log in from another browser on the same computer, it notifies me of the login.

The same

If only you log in from the same IP as the owner.

no, you need the same session, the same IP will not help.

no way, even logging in via the API gives an alert

If only you log in from the same IP as the owner.

even if from the same IP. A notification comes every time you authorize your account, whether from your own IP or someone else’s, the same applies to devices

Yes, but besides it, the IP and the client (and its version) must be the same.

Where does this information come from? I regularly use 2 services on my account, notifications only come when I log in from a different browser/IP.

that's the point, if it's a stranger, then the owner will know about your entry

It seems to me that SMS does not arrive only when the owner of the page is online

You need to log in from the same place/name that you logged in to earlier. This way you won't receive a notification!

There is no way yet) there is no way around it

Alas, not like new protection supposedly

Your VKontakte account was logged in via

Many of us often receive push notifications on our Cell phones or email messages that contain the following wording: “Your VKontakte account was logged in through” What does this mean and what kind of notification is it, should you be afraid and what to do in such cases when you receive such notifications on the VKontakte social network? Let's figure it out.

As a rule, this message is automatically sent to you when someone (you or attackers) logs in to your VKontakte account with an IP address or mobile device that did not exist before.

Typically the message looks something like this:

Your VKontakte account was logged in via Firefox, Russia
Your VKontakte account was logged in via Safari, Ukraine

The information contained in such a message usually consists of several parts:

Browser or application through which you log in to VK
Country, according to IP address ( important note the country may be fake as many people use proxies)
IP address from which you logged in

If you received this notice and have not currently logged into your account anywhere, which means your data has been compromised, your account has been hacked and fallen into the hands of criminals or scammers. And if action is not taken urgently, you or your friends may become victims of Internet scammers.

What to do:

View the history of your visits to VK
Make sure it's not you
Change passwords, and it is important to change the password not only social network VK, but also on e-mail.
Enable VK login confirmation via SMS
Check your PC for viruses

The main thing is not to panic and do everything quickly. Notifications such as “Your VKontakte account was logged in through” help the social network fight intruders and protect you and your VKontakte friends from scammers.

In conclusion, we also want to note use different passwords for mail and VK, use complex passwords which are difficult to hack, do not download or install all kinds of hacks, etc., in 99% of cases these are viruses that steal your account data. Install an antivirus and constantly monitor database updates.

Attention: when you order the code again, you may end up in the following situation. The first code got stuck somewhere, you ordered the code a second time, and then the first one arrived. You enter it, and VK is already waiting for the second code, and the first code is not accepted, VK says that the code was entered incorrectly. After all, the codes are different! He has already forgotten about the first one, but this is not so easy for you to understand, because it is not your fault that the first SMS did not arrive. Wait for the second one to arrive or order a call from a robot so that it dictates the code to you.

Check again which number VK sent the code to and which number you are waiting for it on!

VK tells you the last digits of the number to which it sent the code. People often have several numbers. They think that there is a phone in front of them with this exact number. But in fact it turns out that the number is different! Check it one more time. Call some of your friends. Ask what number this call is from.

I don't receive a recovery code

If you have tried everything listed above and nothing helps, the code does not appear, try again tomorrow. If even then the code does not arrive, you will have to restore access without a phone number to another number.

What if VK can’t send the code?

I don't receive a login confirmation code

Maybe VK sent the code in a private message?

When login confirmation is enabled ( two-factor authentication), the login code can be sent either via SMS or personal message from the administration of VKontakte. It comes in PM if you have the VK mobile application on your phone and you are authorized in it (that is, logged in with your username and password). You need to carefully read where the code is sent:

In this case, find the phone where you have the mobile application and look at the code in a personal message. The code message looks something like this:

What should I do if I can’t see the code in a private message?

Then the code can be ordered via SMS. We explained how to do this here:

What should I do if I don’t receive the code, but I need to log in?

When you turned on login confirmation via SMS, VK offered to write out backup codes on a piece of paper - in case the phone is unavailable or the security code in SMS does not come for some reason. Now this piece of paper would be useful. It had to be hidden in your wallet and always carried with you.

If you can’t get the login confirmation code, all that’s left to do is to completely restore access through an application using a different phone number (and it won’t be quick).

The modern generation can no longer imagine themselves for a long time offline. We are constantly online. Connecting with people has become easier thanks to social media. In them, in particular, you can send a message to a person and track whether the user read it or not.

Even if the interlocutor is not online this moment, you can be sure that he will know about the attempt to contact him and enter into correspondence. All thanks modern function push notifications that appear on the screen of a smartphone or tablet.

Brief educational program

Push notifications are short pop-up notifications that appear on the device screen and report various changes, important events and updates. Push notifications have become extremely popular, because it makes it possible not to lose sight of anything important. The vast majority of the function is disabled and enabled at the user’s request. It can be configured both in the gadget as a whole and in individual applications in particular. This convenient way be in prompt communication with friends, relatives, colleagues and acquaintances.

Formulation of the problem

Introduce modern world It’s very difficult without VKontakte. Obviously, this social network has an application for iOS devices. Any application has problems, and VKontakte was no exception. Either the process of listening to music becomes difficult, or notifications about messages and publications stop appearing on the screen. The question of why notifications from the VKontakte application stop coming is becoming more and more worrying modern people using Apple products. Eat whole line reasons why this might happen this situation, and in each case there is a certain way to solve it.

The question of why notifications do not arrive on the iPhone "VKontakte" is asked by many users. Most often, the alerts do not disappear at all. If the application is running, message notifications are still displayed on the screen. Complete silence occurs only when you minimize the application from processes. It was after this that many people stopped receiving notifications on their iPhones on VKontakte. The reason for this phenomenon will be explained below.

"VKontakte" has nothing to do with it

Although the problem is relevant at the moment, there have been no official comments from representatives of the popular social network on this issue. They are confident that no problems can arise from the application itself. Constant release of updates is aimed at ensuring that this problem does not occur.

Why did I stop receiving notifications on my iPhone VKontakte?

Most likely, the reason for false notifications lies in the server. In order for you to receive notifications about a variety of events on your page, you need to clearly and correctly configure both the gadget itself with the operating iOS system, and your account on VKontakte. Then everything will work correctly, and you will be able to be in prompt communication with your VK friends. So, if you have stopped receiving notifications on your iPhone on VKontakte, you should perform some manipulations with the device.

What do we have to do?

The developers are currently working on the bugs. You can try to return notifications to normal mode on your own. So far there are several tips from users of Apple devices, and these methods in most cases help resolve the issue. First you need to make sure that your gadget has the latest, most current versions both VK and software.

The first way is to check if notifications are turned on at all. And you shouldn’t be indignant, because most often this is precisely the problem. The user accidentally refuses to receive notifications without reading the information in the pop-up window, or the failure occurs automatically. In any case, the first thing you need to do is check the settings. Open the notifications item in them and look for them in the list installed applications VK.
If the corresponding option is active, go to the application itself and try the second method - check the VK settings. The reason that notifications on VKontakte stopped coming to the iPhone may lie in the application itself. In the push notification line we include everything that is necessary. To be sure, you can reboot the gadget.
If this does not return everything to its place, we use the third method. You need to log out (exit) from the VKontakte application and log in again. After this, it is better to reboot the device.
The fourth method is to delete the VKontakte application from your iPhone or iPad, and then after some time install it again in the AppStore.

If all these steps have been completed and notifications on iPhone "VKontakte" stopped coming again, the problem is still in the server. You can notify the application developers about existing problems through the support service or in reviews on the AppStore and wait for Vkontakte to be corrected.

Today we will discuss the causes of this problem and what solutions to eliminate it.

Not receiving VK notifications on iPhone?

All users of applications of this kind simply cannot do without notifications. After all, this is essentially a broadcast of events that take place inside VKontakte.

It happens that your friend wrote something or someone started an important broadcast. You don't want to miss a single event.

I can name three main reasons for the problem:

you did not allow notifications when you first launched the application;
notifications are disabled in VK settings;
problems on the developer's side.

Based on all this, I can immediately offer a couple of solution options. Having done them according to the instructions, everything should work fine.

Enable VK notifications on iPhone

These instructions are suitable for any case when you just downloaded any program or game, and then accidentally disabled notifications, although you did not want to do this.

We take your iPhone in our hands and do the following:

If any of these points were turned off, then it is quite possible that this became main reason this problem. If everything was active, then proceed to the next point.

Enable notifications in the VKontakte application

Eat individual settings and in the VK program itself. Perhaps you turned something off earlier and forgot to turn it back on. Everyone's situation may be completely different.

In any case, you can find these settings like this:

If everything is fine here, then it’s not entirely good. After all, you will have to bother to return everything to its place. But there is no need to worry. There are a couple more trump cards up my sleeve.

Non-standard solutions

A little higher were presented the most standard solutions, and now we can move on to more specific cases. Perhaps one of them is just yours and something can be useful to you.

Let's just briefly go through the list:

Look to see if Do Not Disturb mode is turned on on your iPhone. Signs may include a crescent moon icon next to the battery indicator. Or just check if everything is turned off in Settings — Do not disturb.
We check, or you latest version applications ( App Store — Updates). Sometimes developers make mistakes, there’s nothing to hide here.
In some cases, resetting network settings helped users. To do this, let's go to Settings — Basic — Reset — Reset network settings (I WARN , All Wi-Fi passwords will be deleted and will have to be re-entered).
Well, the last option. Let's go to Settings — iTunes Store and App Store- click on Apple ID — Go out. Now you need to do a cold restart, for this you usually hold down the buttons Home And Power(read this action for all models here -).
Then the phone turns off, turns on and then we go into our account, having completed all the same steps as at the beginning, only at the end we enter your Apple ID and password.

Users always find solutions and here it’s a matter of luck, because for some one way can help. And sometimes it’s a completely hopeless situation.

I hope that you have finally found how to enable notifications in the VK application on your iPhone. If you find another non-standard way, then share it in the comments, maybe it can help someone.
