Sometimes it doesn’t keep up perfectly. Maybe you walked further away from your phone than you thought. You can turn the notifications off but do you really want to? What about the day you really do leave the phone on your nightstand or at work. 🤷🏼‍♂️ I’d rather it work too well than not well at all. Ever since I was 16 they have ramped up the focus and while I do appreciate not getting a notification every 12 seconds, I don’t appreciate not getting important notifications until noon or 5 PM or whenever my focus is set up for. So I had to go into the notification screen and set it up custom. The ones like email and important messages need to come through immediately and the news stories and unimportant things can be held back till later. So I would advise you to set it up to your convenience.
