Android lets you choose how your phone handles app notifications on your lock screen. Let’s go check out the options. Open up Settings and tap Apps & Notifications. Tap Notifications and look for "On the lock screen." This setting might already say "Show all notification content." Tap on it.[br][br]The "On the lock screen" setting opens up three possible choices:[br][br]1. Show all notification content. This option keeps your lock screen notifications as normal, where you will see previews of the content.[br][br]2. Hide sensitive notification content. This option will still let basic notifications appear on your lock screen, but you won’t see the content of text messages or emails. This is a reasonable middle-ground choice that keeps you in the know on your lock screen without spilling the beans on exactly what your apps are trying to tell you. For example, you will know you have a text message, but you won’t see what it says.[br][br]3. Don’t show notifications at all. This is the most thorough way to keep the content of messages and other notifications off your lock screen. The trade-off is that you won’t have the convenience of seeing your alerts on your lock screen. You will have to unlock your Android phone to see the latest messages.[br][br] |
