Not seeing missed call notifications from CallHippo on your iPhone? It’s usually a quick fix. Work through the checks below to get those alerts back on track.

Troubleshooting steps

  1. Double-check notifications. Open your iPhone’s Settings and tap Notifications. Scroll down to the CallHippo app and make sure Allow Notifications is switched on, especially for missed calls.
  2. Enable Background App Refresh. This lets CallHippo stay updated even when minimized. Go to Settings > General > Background App Refresh and turn on the toggle for CallHippo.
  3. Restart the app. Close CallHippo completely by swiping it up in the App Switcher, then reopen it. Sometimes a simple refresh does the trick.
  4. Restart your iPhone. This clears minor glitches that can cause notification issues. Hold the power button (or the side and volume buttons on newer iPhones) until “slide to power off” appears, then power back on.
  5. Update the app. New updates often include bug fixes for notifications. Open the App Store, tap your profile picture in the top-right corner, scroll to available updates, and update CallHippo if one is waiting.
  6. Check Do Not Disturb. Make sure Do Not Disturb isn’t silencing your alerts. Open Control Center (swipe down from the top-right on iPhone X and later, or up from the bottom on earlier models). If the crescent moon icon is lit, tap it to turn Do Not Disturb off.
