iPhone X/8/7/6 not showing missed calls on lock screen iOS 11.4/12 [Solved]


Many iPhone X/8/7/6 users are facing issue after upgrading to latest iOS 11 and iOS 114.1 that their iPhone is not showing missed call on the lock screen. However the missed call is showing up on the iPad lock screen but not on the iPhone lock screen. The iPhone 6/7 does not display missed call at all. Even in the recent calls log on iphone there are no missed calls.


An iPhone X user reported same issue as
My iPhone X has not registered a single call, text, message or WhatsApp since I bought it a week ago. I just get missed calls, no sound or vibrate. Settings are all correct. What shall I do?”
The users are sure that they have a call ringing and when they missed to pick up the call there is nothing on the lock scree of iPhone about missed call information. The issue is even reported with iOS 12 beta 3 where missed calls are not appearing on the iPhone lock screen. Similar to this issue if someone calls while you are on other call, the waiting call in queue will not be registered in the missed call list.
