Anyone knows what's that circled in blue in the attached screenshots?
One screenshot is from phone settings, apps and notifications, the other from WhatsApp info, notifications.
It appeared after I long pressed on a notification from WhatsApp, but then I dismissed and changed nothing.
How can I remove it or reset to default?
Thanks

Every time I get a notification, I click on it in the notification bar and it takes me to the app (messages or Gmail or whatever). I can read the message, delete the email, etc.. but when I drag down notifications the notification is still there... They used to no longer show the notification after interacting.
Why are they not clearing once clicked? Very annoying. I don't think was happening when I first installed Lollipop, but maybe. Anyone else have this or know why it may be doing this? I have to go back and manually clear them after interacting.
Great phone! One thing worries me though:
Using stock android email, I don't get any notifications in the status bar.
For Gmail, the notification for new mail does appear in the status bar OK.
In both cases the LED does not blink when a mail arrives.
I'm pretty sure I've checked all the options for notifications (settings>Apps & notifications>configure notification) as well as all apps allowed to send notifications; and in email settings. Also tried in safe mode, and did a factory reset with no result.
But perhaps I'm missing something?
Anyone else with similar issues?
Edit_____
Factory reset solved email icon - it now appears. But no LED light.
Installed led light app (Phone Light-LED) which seems to be a good workaround so far.

Actually, you can try to reset app preferences next time.

I've found that starting in 7.1.1 on my XC, the LED notifications will blink only for notifications configured for sound. If notification is silent, then no LED. Stupid IMO. Not sure if 8.0 is the same or not.
My notification dots are frozen, it tells me I have a notification for Facebook, Twitch and when I open the app they don't seem to clear, I shouldn't even be getting notifications because they're dismissed through the drop down when I get them. Happened in the last few hours. Anyone else having the same issue?
I haven't experienced your problem. I'm assuming by notification dots you mean App Badges that show the unread/unresponded to count. These typically go away when you tap the icon in the notification panel to view the event or swipe the notification away in the notification panel. If you're doing one or both of these actions and the count remains try disabling the App Badges for the affected apps and then enabling them again.
Settings>Apps>locate the affected apps>Notifications>App Badges, toggle it off, then back out and then go back in and toggle it on if you still wish to view them.
In another instance where I saw something like this happening the user also tried clearing the cache and app data, but didn't achieve success until they uninstalled the app and installed it again. That wouldn't work for Facebook however because it is a pre-installed app and therefore cannot be uninstalled but it can be disabled. That could be enough if the above method doesn't work for you.
So this is weird. I am not using dark mode. I removed Vivo.pem. I followed (I think) all the instructions to activate notifications. At the begginning my notifications come perfectly everywhere(I have it to light the screen when notification comes).
However, after a while or a few minutes the meesages still come but the screen does not light up nor does anything show on lockscreen. They do show on the dropdown screen and they do show on the app icon as well.
I use Nova usually, I tried with and without Nova to no avail. However when I reboot the messages show (sometimes) on lockscreen..afterwhich they stop. its like something blocks all notification to lockscreen after a while.
Did I miss someting in the instructions?

Set your lockscreen notifications this way . Than individually allow apps you want to show notifications on lockscreen . And you're good to go .
I do(I think).
It's not about the lighting of the screen per say,it's about the messages not showing(or screen lighting) after a while on the lockscreen. It becomes a clean lockscreen ..but when I go to drop down menu or check the badges on the apps they are all there.
Again it works sometimes at the beginning then stops populating the lockscreen
I don't know if it works for you or not but try these for the apps you wanna get the notifications.
1. Disable Allow smart notification control.
2. Enable the settings from 2nd screenshot.
ah..ok I see...will give it a shot

Mine doesn't have that option.
"Allow Smart notification control"
Mine doesn't either ..but I think that there is a general setting that says enable and disable which makes it not show on a per app level.
On another note..the messages all of a sudden started to show. And I did NOTHING DIFFERENT. I had the exact settings as in attachments.I had previously rebooted the phone like many times to no avail.
I know we're beating a deadhorse with vivo notifications, but man how can someone mess up something so simple ....and it's so hard to figure it out when you can't really replicate it .
I have this thought: If the notifications are still coming but just not showing on the lock screen, on Samsung phones (S21, S22....) also, it just notifies the app icon. notifications come in without lighting up the screen and showing a summary of what is being notified normally like other phones. I fixed it with a Glimpse Notifications software available on the Play Store. All incoming notifications will light up the lock screen and show a summary of the content like other phones

Hi all, I'm hoping someone can help fix my WhatsApp problem. I have every single option for notification turned on including auto start, display on lock screen and background pop ups. Now, if my phone is off, I will get the notification on the lock screen including the message preview. This works on dark mode and light mode, however, if I'm using the phone and I get a WhatsApp message, unlike Facebook and Outlook etc I do not get a message preview box at the top for a few seconds, all I get is the WhatsApp icon next to the clock top left and the app badge will have a 1. I have tried this is light and dark mode, it works for neither. I also have all the relevant settings in inside the WhatsApp app itself. Here's where things get strange though. If someone sends me a WhatsApp and I leave it unread, if a SECOND person sends me a WhatsApp I will now get a notification pop up for both messages, 1 line for each one. Why on earth can I not get it for 1 new message? What setting am I missing? I've compared to others and everything seems the same. Many thanks if you can help.
