Download icon missing

[ShireFrodo1]

I've got a galaxy s8 and I'm on the latest version of play store, I'm not getting download notification when I'm downloading an app. Chrome is fine, shows downloading notification. All my app notifications are enabled. In app settings downloads and downloads manager are enabled, any fix for this?

Welcome to Android Central! I moved this from the Note 4 forum (not sure why it was there) to the S8 forum.

Are the apps getting installed successfully despite the lack of notification, or are the apps not installing?

Also, have you checked these notifications for the Download Manager?

I don't have behaviour in download manager

 

[ShireFrodo1]

Yup, but nothing

 

[ShireFrodo1]

Sorry I didn't realise. Yup every app I download is getting installed.

You have to tap the text for each category.

Can you show us the same screenshot that Javier P attached previously, just so we can see how Download Manager's notifications are set up on your phone?

Which option do you get if you tap the "In Progress" text?

Also, we discussed a similar problem a few months ago. See if any of the possible solutions included in this thread work for you.

Meaning you want to see a pop up that there's a update for the app?

I think the OP wants to see the animated download-in-progress icon in the status bar.
@ShireFrodo1, just to reinforce what Javier P said, make sure you tap the text, not the toggle switch, to see what additional options come up.

I get notification style, lock screen and app icon badge. In progress is of course in silent and app icon badge is enabled. In settings >notifications I checked out play store and all the options are on silent. On tbe status bar option I have show all notifications ticked .

You can try in phone settings >tap apps >3 dots upper right corner tap then s roll to app reset preference see how that works.

I think you might have to do factory reset , not much else to try.
