Iphone doesn't tell me when I get a message from my wife

[Mordac]

Why? Other people send me messages and it makes a noise, but all my wife's messages are silent. Please help. And no, it's not in silent mode, it rings and other people send texts that ding.

Is your 'wife' imaginary? That would explain why all her messages are silent...

Mrs Hm is far from imaginary she likes to give it some

Your phone is jealous and wants to split you up. Get an android phone. They're programmed with the three laws. (Roy, notwithstanding).

Contacts app > find your wife > click on ‘i’ on right hand side > click on ‘edit’ too right hand corner > scroll down to ‘text tone’ and set to default (or select whichever one you prefer)

Checked that and it was on default. I changed it to something else and will test.
The only thing I can guess is that it has to do with using imessage instead of a text.

No one? It even pings on all the other apple devices in the house.

Delete the contact and readd?

de-register the number/e-mail for imessages and register them again.
It could be any of the phones but do not tell her that.

Say it was her phone and any time she questions you judgment/intentions remind her of the time she blamed you for not responding to messages when it was actually her fault for not taking care of her phone.




yeah… I am single

Did you ever set a special ringtone for her? If so then as others have said, this has got screwed up.
