Notifications are messages that appear on your device screen. Apps use notifications to remind you of new and/or upcoming information such as:
- a calendar appointment
- a new text or email message
- breaking news
You can even get delivery notifications with pictures from Amazon.
Notifications include the app icon, app name, and a message. They typically appear on the lock screen and at the top of the screen when the device is unlocked.
