I recently switched to graphene os 🥳 but I am having trouble getting notifications from profiles other than the one currently open. Background running is enabled for the profile in settings, when I switch to it it is cleary still running, but I only then see any notifications from Apps there. I only have whatsapp running in that profile with play services. I have tried having someone send me a message, even after waiting for 15 minutes it doesnt show in the main profile.
I thought this was supposed to officially work, but with a delay. Am I wrong?

Haven’t verified it, but I was under the impression run in background would forward notifications.
Use private space instead of a second profile it is as secure and private but with less hassle. also you have to enable send notifications to current user in user settings and allow the second profile to run in background.
Edit: this video explains private space in GrapheneOS very well
GOS recommends against putting any app that you want notifications from inside the private space. That said, I did the same thing.
