This appears to be a feature that most people would rather not have and I've tried doing the reverse of what people have suggested to turn this feature off; but my phone doesn't have anything in the accessibility settings to turn this feature on / off. I miss messages / text / voicemails all the time because my notifications go unread and I don't know they are there. I'd rather have a continuous reminder like my older (non-smart phone) I have an Android Turbo 2 phone.
