Check your notification settings? There are different modes. You can switch to "always on" but this will impact your battery life.

They use their own notification service so that the notifications aren't sent over Apple servers.

I have background app refresh and instant notifications enabled, what else?

I'm referring to the setting in the app. Under notifications --> Notification service --> Always on

ah maybe the ios one doesnt have that? under there i just see send notifications, show preview, and push server options, plus a 'test notifications' (which does succeed). no 'notification service' option.
