If you're not receiving notifications from Google on your phone, first ensure that notifications are enabled in both the app's settings and your phone's settings for the specific app. Also, check your phone's Do Not Disturb settings to make sure they aren't inhibiting notifications. Additionally, clearing the cache for the Google app can sometimes resolve these issues. To do this, go to your phone's Settings > Apps & notifications > See all apps > Google > Storage & cache > Clear cache. If issues persist, make sure your app and phone's operating system are up to date.
