I never assume, Charlie, I've seen some pretty strange things on this board.I assume Ron is referring to his new iPhone.
Yes I did that and most of what I know sill very low compare to iMessage ..Presuming you meant on the new iPhone, try Settings/Sounds & Haptics and select a tone for "Text Tone" and see if that works. If it's not the iPhone, let us know what you are talking about.
Sorry, what do u mean by activated..It sounds like the side switch could have been activated?
I turn it off because its for phone ringing that I wont hear it but I want the volume to work,, DOnt think it. matters does it ? Thats why I m trying to learn what Change with Button do, I think its adjusting volume for both Ring and Alert, now if I turn Change with Button on, maybe it will separate the setting of Ring and Alert so I can keep Ring low and Alert high...The button above the volume up/down (+/-) is for ring/silent.

Not sure that is a bug, but a security feature. Do you really want your texts, etc., to show up for anybody who happens to pick up your locked iPhone?There's supposedly a bug with the latest iOS for the iPhone 12 series. I have the iPhone 12 Pro Max, and since I got it before Christmas, none of my text/notifications/alerts pop-up within the display with the phone locked. I have to unlock my phone and then I notice how many emails and notifications I've already missed. It's pretty annoying!

EDIT: In Settings/Notifications there is a "Show Previews" option for Always, When Unlocked, Never. I have mine set to When Unlocked. Is yours on "Always?"
I don't use any products from Alphabet. But I'll do a search.Google it.
Unless I'm misunderstanding what you want the phone to do, my 12 Pro Max does that. Just as it has always done. I have gotten one or two texts where it did not seem to work but I changed my text notificationcation tone and things seem to be working.Yeah, I'm talking about the brief on-screen notification if your phones sitting on a table/desk in front of you. This phone doesn't do that. Yes, Show Previews under notifications is set to Always. Worked on my 11 Pro Max, same way. It's supposedly a bug, Google it... it's an issue with the 12 series iPhones.

Did a search. Found a handful of sites about the issue. All of them had a list of things to do to fix it. Mostly settings, sounds, etc. Have you tried calling Apple directly? You can schedule a call with them through Apple.com/Support and follow the various menus to get to where you can ask for a tech to call you. They are very responsive.
