3 different iPhones... only 1 “last added” gets notifications (NEW ISSUE TODAY)

[galts]

I updated to the latest version and where there used to be 3 individual iphones with their individual names.

now in notifications only 1 device with generic name Notification.mobile_app_iphone
and the other two are nowhere to be found… and only 1 iphone with get notifications…
It seems like which ever phone was the last phone added is the one that gets notifications.

I would add photos but I am to new to do so.

I have tried reset in companion app
reset and delete of all devices
and removing the app but now all 3 devices show up as iPhone under MOBILE APP devices…
and there is only 1 notification showing up…

also, when i use notify.notify it will only go to one device…

PLEASE HELP!

This is a known issue that appears since iOS 16 introduced new privacy settings.
Check the following GitHub issue for more details:

Known iOS 16, watchOS 9, macOS 13 issues

There is also some workaround (discussed for example in this topic
https://community.home-assistant.io/t/ios-mobile-app-lost-name-for-unknown-reason-ha-confused-and-cannot-notify-anymore/462986/5

@AldoQ

1. iOS app: Settings → Companion App → [Server name] → Device Name → Manually entered the correct device name.
2. HA: Manually renamed the device back to the correct name
3. HA: renamed all entities manually for this phone one by one.
   (One would asume step 1 would mean step 2 and 3 would not be needed and with step 2 that 3 would not be needed. But while device and entities has been changed to ‘iphone’ it didn’t not revert them back automatically with me)

• At this stage nomore errors from automations but notifications did not arrive-

4. wait patiently - in my case about 8 hours (i.e. did this in the evening, next morning when I woke up it worked again).
