Is this new in One UI 7?
 
When I get text notifications from multiple people they stack/group and displays the number to the right of the tile. And I need to click it for it to expand to see everything.
 
Remember on my s24 each text got their own tile.
 
I keep missing notifications from texts cause they are being grouped.
 
How can I disable this?

Still waiting on a fix for this! The amount of messages I've missed this is one of the worst ux

S25 Ultra owner since the day it came out. Overall happy with the phone but it's getting exhausting missing messages due to this problem.... 

Pretty much everyone is using Google Messages at this point for the RCS compatibility feature with iPhone users (pretty stoked about that) but it's one of the many Apps that "Group" their Notifications and it's killing me. 

My lock screen will show 7 individual notifications for any kind of Social (ie 7 Instagram DMs) but only a single Messages notification with a small number on the side. Sure, I can tap it and they'll expand, but I genuinely miss it a few times a day and I need a fix. Somehow all of the Social Media notifications are all individually shown, but not what's actually important, weird.

I've tried the Notification Categories, I've scoured this app, Reddit, and YT. I've even tried to customize the Do Not Disturb. Nothing has worked. Only one other thread on here complaining, it seems. I can't be the only one lol Please tell me someone has a solution!

I know it's not what you are looking for, but why not just open the messaging app and read the unread texts instead of the notification? Google messages highlights conversations with unread texts snd puts a number indicator next to them to show how many mew texts are in a conversation.

Yes, you are correct that's not what I'm looking for.

I have two suggestions until a fix/modification (if this actually will be addressed) is implemented with the next software update. Go to setting/notifications and toggle on "Notification alerts". Then, then open the section and choose what to modify, like repeating alerts in time intervals, and to which app to apply those settings as well as turning on "Vibrate when sound plays".

The other option is to sue Good Lock module from the Galaxy Store an open that, then install the plugin "NotiStar" . That particular plugin will show up as an app shortcut in the app drawer. Make a spot on the home screen for it and open with when you get notifications in your status bar. It will open every notification and even provide some details. Clicking on the notification will open the relevant app connected to that notification.

I appreciate the work around here, my actual issue is that while working I often just glance at my phones locked screen, and if I don't see any pertinent notifications, I just go about my work.

So an initial text comes in that's not worth breaking stride, then it's all I see, even though there are important texts hidden beneath it.

Breaking the habit I've had since the S8 Active is tough lol

OK, then try this; by going to Notifications/Advanced settings then toggle on "Manage notification categories for each app", the go back to the top and click on "sort notifications" and choose by priority. Now back out to the Notification section, open do not disturb and toggle tha ton, then go back a screen, then choose App notifications, then add the apps to allow during do not disturb.
